Rehabilitation Science is an interdisciplinary field focused on understanding and enhancing the physical, psychological, and social aspects of recovery from injury, illness, or disability. The course explores the biological foundations of rehabilitation, assessment techniques, intervention strategies, and the integration of technology in patient care. Students will examine evidence-based practices and research in areas such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and assistive devices.
Emphasis is placed on holistic, patient-centered approaches and the development of skills to promote independence, improve quality of life, and support reintegration into the community for individuals of all ages facing functional limitations.
