Enter the Growing Field of Physical Therapy or Occupational Therapy
Both physical and occupational therapy are education-intensive careers; you must earn a Master of Science (MS) in Physical Therapy or a Master of Science (MS) in Occupational Therapy to practice the respective professions (the master’s requirement is new in physical therapy, but has always been necessary in occupational therapy). Furthermore, doctorate-level degrees are commonly needed to acquire the best jobs, and might become the entry-level degree in both fields before long.
The job outlook for physical and occupational therapists is excellent. According to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates, physical therapist jobs should increase by 27% and occupational therapist jobs by 23% through 2016. This is a pace that is much faster than average when compared to that of all occupations.
