OR 631 MATHEMATICAL PROGRAMMING II 3.0 Credit(s)
Offered: As Needed Contact Department
OT 691 LEVEL II FIELDWORK A 3.0 Credit(s)
Students will engage in fieldwork during the spring and summer semesters. Students will apply their understanding of occupation, professional practice, identity, and leadership during a twelve-week, full-time fieldwork placement. Objectives of this course continue to focus on personal transformation as occupational therapists. Students are expected to develop the professional competencies of an entry-level therapist for a particular site by the conclusion of this experience.

PT 632 EVALUATION & INTERVENTION II 6.0 Credit(s)
This course includes principles of the evaluation process, clinical decision-making process, and methods of intervention for patients with neurological dysfunction in various physical therapy settings and across the lifespan. With consideration for best available evidence, various interventions to address impairments (ie. postural control, muscle performance, and motor control), activity limitations (ie. transitions, mobility), and participation limitations (ie. playing with other children, performing job duties) will be explored in LGD, LAB, and tutorial and applied to patient cases. Students will consider, interpret, and synthesize implications of both intrinsic and extrinsic patient factors including diagnosis and pathophysiology of the disease process, comorbidities, examination findings, age, therapeutic setting, psychosocial factors, patient goals, and the role of assistive/adaptive devices to determine physical therapy diagnosis, patient prognosis, and formulate appropriate goals and plans of care. Students will also learn how to provide evidence-informed practice by utilizing analytical skills to explore research and determine its clinical application to patient care. This course, in coordination with PT 612 Structure and Function II and PT 622 Examination & Documentation II, focuses on rehabilitation intervention and is organized into three modules: · Module 1: Foundational Perspectives: Motor Control & Motor Learning Theories and Models, Postural Control/Stability, and Balance (Cases 1-7) · Module 2: Sensory-Motor Systems: Transitions and Mobility/Locomotion (Cases 8-14) · Module 3: Integrative Systems: Cognition, Perception, UE function/Object Manipulation, and Coordination (Cases 15-25)

CY 670 RESEARCH PROJECT SEMINAR 3.0 Credit(s)
Required for students pursuing the nonthesis option in their program of study, the student works with a faculty advisor in defining a short research or implementation project. For a research project, the student surveys relevant literature, critically analyzes the state of the art, and possibly synthesizes improvements. For an implementation project, the student implements and tests a solution to the chosen problem; the project could involve a combination of research and implementation. At the end of the project, the student writes a report approved by the faculty member and makes a public presentation of the work. Prerequisite: Take CS-622 CS-625 CS-628 CS-635
Offered: Fall, Spring & Late Spring Sem All Years
CY 690 THESIS I 3.0 Credit(s)
Required for the thesis option, the student works with a faculty advisor in defining a substantial research or implementation project. For a research project, the student surveys relevant literature, critically analyzes the state of the art, and synthesizes improvements. For an implementation project, the student implements and tests a solution to the chosen problem, comparing it with other work, if any; the project could involve a combination of research and implementation. At the end of this course, the student should have a well-defined problem, have surveyed relevant literature, and have made partial progress toward the completion of the work. The student should be ready to make a brief presentation of the work in progress, as required by the advisor. By the end of this course, a proposal describing the work should be written and approved by a thesis committee chosen by the student and the advisor, according to university policy. Prerequisite: Take CS-622 CS-625 CS-628 CS-635
Offered: As Needed All Years
CY 680 CYBERSECURITY PRACTICUM 3.0 Credit(s)
The course will provide students' an opportunity to obtain real-world experience by working on a project within a cybersecurity-related business organization or research lab with their on-site supervisor and co-supervised by a faculty member. A final summary report will be required from both student and supervisor.
