Is it possible to get a joint masters degree in occupational and physical therapy?
Is there a such thing as getting one masters degree in two years for two different but related majors? Kind of like a double major except it is for a master’s degree. I want to pursue careers in physical and occupational therapy, but I don’t want to stay in school for 4 whole years when the two majors are so closely related. If this is possible, what schools offer this and where are they? Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks.
I’m fairly certain that this is not possible. If I were you I would get the PT degree and work towards a specialization – there are several areas a PT can get specialized in. Look on the APTAs website to learn more at
www.apta.org
There is also a lot of information on different PT programs on the website that you may want to check out.
Good luck!
