Through the Institute’s affiliation with Mass General Brigham, students enjoy access to leading practitioners in the Metropolitan Boston area who serve as faculty and mentors.

Full- and part-time fieldwork experiences are integrated at every stage of the curriculum, allowing students to continually connect theory with practice.

Fieldwork is completed in a variety of clinical and practice settings (e.g., acute care, rehab, school-based practice, community). Students are exposed to a variety of clients across the lifespan and to a variety of settings. Our program is affiliated with fieldwork facilities across the U.S. offering opportunities for level II clinical placements in a variety of focus areas and geographic locations. 

Our focus on experiential learning, in addition to our Institute-wide IMPACT (Interprofessional Model for Patient and Client-Centered Teams) curriculum, facilitates critical thinking, communication skills, ethical reasoning, and team-based problem-solving. Participating in these and other learning opportunities extends to students being better prepared for fieldwork training with increased confidence in communicating and delivering care.

Our program is affiliated with fieldwork facilities across the U.S. offering opportunities for level II clinical placements in a variety of focus areas and geographic locations.
