OT 751 (01) - Mind Body Systems/Neurologically Based Function and Dysfunction

Students study significant occupational-related disorders commonly seen by occupational therapists. A self-directed method is used to examine the perceptual, cognitive, biopsychosocial basis of these disorders. A basic overview of human body-mind systems is provided with an emphasis on pathology, the recognition of symptoms, their causes and the occupational implications of the disorders. The course is a prerequisite for courses in specific occupational therapy assessment and intervention.
