Research

KITE Research presentation

Our faculty and students conduct research and educational scholarship to advance the fields of occupational science, occupational therapy and rehabilitation. Research focuses on what people do and how to make it easier for individuals to lead productive and meaningful lives. We explore our clients’ and their families’ needs and create new models, methods, treatments and tools to enable them to achieve their goals. Our research provides evidence for occupational therapy practices and takes client and family-directed approaches to care.

MScOT students are actively engaged in research activities throughout their program. In addition to the many national and international research presentations made by students every year, each student presents their research project at our annual Graduate Student Research Day.
