I have done Bachelors in Microbiology. Am I eligible for MS in OT?

<p>Yes, you may be eligible to pursue a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy, but it depends on the specific university's criteria. Most institutions offering this programme require candidates to hold a Bachelor's degree in Occupational Therapy or a closely related field. Since you've completed your graduation in Microbiology, some universities may consider your application if your coursework aligns with health sciences and if you've completed a six-month internship in a clinical or rehabilitation setting. Additionally, you might need to clear an entrance exam conducted by the university or a central body. It's advisable to check with individual colleges for their exact eligibility requirements and admission process.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>No, in India you are not eligible for MS in Occupational Therapy (MOT). Although the Microbiology degree that you hold qualifies it as a Science degree, it does not act as a building block nor does it lay the relevant clinical skills as an occupational therapist that are the pre-requisite qualification before a Masters course in this same occupational therapeutic discipline.It is possible to graduate in sciences with some prerequisite courses and find a few foreigners universities accepting them, however, a BOT is required when studying in India.</p>
