UAB OT Life

This website is dedicated to showcasing the day-to-day life of the UAB OTD (Clinical Doctorate in Occupational Therapy) student. Our entry-level OTD program is designed for students who want to become an occupational therapist or pursue a career in a related field, and this website provides a window into the world of occupational therapy at UAB and beyond.

This site is a work in progress, where we’ll continue to add a mixture of first-hand experiences from our OTD students, along with pieces told from a storyteller’s point of view.
