Occupational Therapy Catalog 2026-2027

Welcome to the LMU-West Knoxville OTD Program. Consistent with the mission and purpose of Lincoln Memorial University (LMU), the mission of the Doctor of Occupational Therapy (OTD) Program is to graduate critical thinking practitioners who lead the way in client-centered, evidence-based interventions through collaborative care to the individuals, communities and population of rural Appalachia and beyond. The LMU OTD prepares graduates to be entry-level occupational therapists. Experienced occupational therapists with a wide range of specialties and interests teach the curriculum. The program is primarily delivered in a traditional face-to-face format, allowing students to build relationships with faculty and peers that often last a lifetime.
