Occupational Therapy
(Transfer Curriculum)
The University of Texas of the Permian Basin does not
offer a degree program in Occupational Therapy. Within
the Permian Basin, the Texas Tech University Health Science
Center (TTUHSC) in Odessa offers a Bachelors of Science in
Occupational Therapy for entry into the career. The TTUHSC
Occupational Therapy program requires an entering student
to have sixty semester credits of specified college courses.
Below is a course equivalency guide showing the UTPB courses
which meet requirements for entry into the TTUHSC Occupational
Therapy program.
Entry into the TTUHSC Occupational Therapy program is very
competitive. Following the course equivalency guide does not
guarantee that a student will be accepted to Texas Tech or
any other Occupational Therapy program. Following this guide
will provide a prospective student with the right course preparation
for the BS in Occupational Therapy program, if accepted.
Besides the TTUHSC program, Occupational Therapy is offered
at five other Texas universities. Students planning to transfer
into one of these programs should consult their catalogs for
the first two years’ requirements. Programs are at Texas
Women’s University, The University of Texas at El Paso,
The University of Texas at San Antonio, The University of
Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio and The University
of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston.
