Programme Structure

Curriculum:

Students are exposed to the broadest scope of rehabilitation science and are provided with a unique opportunity to develop insight and understanding of the multidisciplinary and inter-professional aspects of rehabilitation.

This approach is an innovative feature of the program and is unique to the Queen's program in Rehabilitation Science.

Rehabilitation Science is the systematic study of disablement within the individual, community, and society.

Disablement is conceptualized as overlapping domains of pathophysiology, impairment, functional limitation, societal/environmental limitations, and social participation.

Rehabilitation focuses on remediation, compensatory approaches and transformative change to enable individuals to live full and satisfying lives as members of their community.
