Program Mission

To provide exemplary education to develop our students’ God-given potential as they become occupational therapy professionals ready to meet the occupational needs of the global society.

Philosophy & Values

The program embraces the core values of the university, as well as the profession of occupational therapy. Saint Mary works to develop each of the following core values in OTD students:

• Community
• Justice
• Respect
• Dignity
• Equality
• Freedom
• Excellence
• Altruism
• Truth
• Prudence

These values will ultimately shape our students' professional lives as practitioners, helping them meet the needs of their patients in the fullest ways possible.

The OTD program is in-step with the larger mission of the university: training students to serve others, developing God-given potential, and guiding students to create value-centered careers and lives.
