Recreation Therapy, B.S.
Are you service minded? Do you want to help people transform their lives? Does the thought of helping people recover from an illness or injury, alleviate a disability or restore independence appeal to you? If so, a degree in recreational therapy can pave the way to the rewarding, people-focused career you are looking for.
From the start, our curriculum will train you to be client-focused while you learn to help persons with physical, cognitive and psychological disabilities set and achieve goals in their personal development. Patients accomplish this through many techniques such as creative play, adaptive sports, the use of animals, art, music, exercise, aquatics and interacting with others in social settings. In addition to the recreation therapy courses, you will receive a background in psychology, human movement and human service fields where you will learn to assess and evaluate clients and create treatment plans. These skills can be valuable in a variety of social service fields in addition to recreation therapy.
