• Enhance students’ academic writing, oral presentation and research article analysis skills with individualized language support as needed.

• Familiarize students with occupational therapy practice in the United States through site

  visits to pediatric, adult physical rehabilitation and mental health practice settings.

• Introduce students to occupational science and USC’s cutting-edge research.

• Provide opportunities to network with USC faculty members and fellow international OTs.

Students admitted to USC’s post-professional master’s program are also encouraged to apply.

The 2015 SOTI program will be held from July 6 – July 31, 2015.   Tuition is $3200, and housing will be provided free of charge to the first 30 admitted applicants.
