Inherent requirements for occupational therapy programs

Our occupational therapy programs have inherent requirements you must meet to be able to graduate.

Inherent requirements are core activities, tasks or skills that are essential to a program or course. They apply to the following programs:

  • Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Honours) 
  • Master of Occupational Therapy Studies. 

What you need to do

If you plan to apply for one of these programs, carefully read through the inherent requirements.

If you think you may experience any problems meeting them, contact a Student Adviser to discuss your needs and whether any reasonable adjustments can be made.

Inherent requirements should be read in conjunction with other information, such as program requirements, UQ Fitness to Practise Policy, and Occupational Therapy Board of Australia publications, such as:
