Students wishing to major in the recreation therapy program enter as pre-recreational therapy majors. The pre-recreational therapy student enrolls in University undergraduate core curriculum courses, pre-recreational therapy curriculum courses and recreational therapy support curriculum courses. Students enrolling in the recreational therapy program receive an education designed to prepare them for employment in the areas of physical rehabilitation, psychiatric rehabilitation, geriatric services, pediatric services, camps for individuals with disabilities, community recreation for individuals with disabilities and centers for mental retardation/developmental disabilities. Recreational therapists design and implement treatment programs and recreation services to help people with illnesses or disabling conditions live healthier, satisfying and independent lives. They work with people who are mentally, physically and emotionally disabled by using leisure activities as a form of intervention. This is similar to the way other health practitioners use surgery, pharmacology, nutrition, exercise or psychotherapy.
