Description

Join the Occupational Therapy exchange programme for an international exchange experience and get a deeper understanding of occupational therapy on a professional and personal level.

An exchange programme at the Department of Occupational Therapy is planned individually for each student. The exchange programme can consist of a theoretical teaching, clinical training or a combination of both. A typical Erasmus exchange programme consist of 10 weeks clinical training and 3 weeks theoretical teaching.

Students will learn how to make creative solutions to help citizens to master everyday tasks. In addition, you will learn to handle and analyse human needs, communication and how to support citizens/patients in handling life crises. As an exchange student, you will also be trained in handling intercultural communication and be introduced to the Danish healthcare system.
