Student Occupational Therapy Association
SOTA is an organization of volunteers who create and stimulate an interest in the field of occupational therapy among University of Florida students and the Gainesville community. UF students enrolled in the OTD program are welcome to join!
Fieldwork and capstone
Fieldwork and capstone experiences provide students with an opportunity to translate theory into practice and to observe or define the roles of occupational therapy in various clinical settings.

Capstone posters
Students begin the capstone project by completing a literature review and needs assessment and is part of an in-depth learning experience that is designed to develop student’s towards entry level clinician-scholars. View a collection of OTD capstone posters in UF’s Institutional Repository.
