Students benefit from customized interdisciplinary research and teaching opportunities and gain a broad understanding of the ways health science impacts the functioning of individuals and society. The program’s dynamic-systems approach to evaluate functioning in individuals with disabilities and develop interventions to enhance health is modeled after the World Health Organization’s International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health.
The Human Functioning and Rehabilitation Science program offered by The University of Vermont prepares graduates for opportunities that include postdoctoral fellowships, faculty appointments, or leadership careers in health sciences, sports and bioengineering, industrial health and wellness or health care. Opportunities to engage in research to improve outcomes for patients with chronic conditions and disabilities are part of the program.
