Orientation and Mobility (O&M) is the practice of enabling people with low vision or blindness to know where they are, so they can get where they want to go safely. O&M specialists work with people of all ages, tailoring interventions to suit the needs of the individual client, including people with additional complexities such as health conditions.

 

Work integrated learning placements form a significant portion of the program and provide opportunities for students to undertake supervised placements at partner organisations such as health facilities, education settings and other relevant agencies. Students are exposed to a wide breath of experience and upon graduating, you will be able to able to demonstrate clinical competence with various populations of individuals with blindness and low vision, allowing you to work across a wide range of organisations that provide O&M services.
