Our purpose-built Occupational Therapy Learning Hubs give you experience in a professional occupational therapy setting, building your confidence and skills to work with real clients. Located at Deakin’s Warrnambool and Geelong Waterfront Campuses, the hubs are equipped with the latest assistive technology and equipment.
Our expert occupational therapy staff will teach you how to identify people's strengths and limitations through real-world simulations and assessments. Refine your skills in our learning hubs and understand how technology can be used to assist clients in completing daily tasks.
The new health precinct, just opened at Deakin’s Warrnambool campus aims to invigorate the teaching offerings in the region. With new state-of-the-art teaching facilities – including simulation laboratory spaces, specialist learning spaces, and shared health discipline facilities – the precinct will create an integrated environment for students to engage and learn.
I chose occupational therapy due to an interest in helping other people improve their function and wellbeing. It is very rewarding when you see client progress. Deakin is a great place to study, with a diverse amount of study options.
