I'm considering majoring in rehabilitation science but I'm not sure which colleges have strong programs. Does anyone have recommendations for the best universities offering undergraduate degrees in rehabilitation science? Any advice on standout courses or internships would be amazing!
While rehabilitation science is often more prominent at the graduate level, there are some universities that do offer robust undergraduate programs.
For example, the University of Pittsburgh offers a Bachelor of Science in Rehabilitation Science program. It is designed to prepare students for further graduate study in the field, as well as provide a liberal arts background. One unique aspect of the program is their focus on both theory and hands-on clinical experience, which could help you stand out when applying for graduate programs. They also offer study abroad opportunities, specialized workshops, and internships.
These programs could provide a solid foundation for you as you move forward. However, it would be ideal to also look at the respective graduate programs to ensure that the path you're choosing could give you the chance to continue your studies or offer seamless progression into your desired field of specialization.
As always, don't forget to explore financial aid opportunities or scholarships available for the specific programs or the universities you're interested in!
