Why choose Health Sciences as a bachelor鈥檚 degree?

In addition to offering a strong background in orthopedic assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation, the Health Sciences degree also provides a great degree of flexibility in course options for the student.  Courses with content such as musculoskeletal evaluation, therapeutic interventions, kinesiology, and medical disease and illness provide the student with a strong foundation for the chiropractic program of study.  The degree offers flexibility by allowing the student to take 9 hours outside of the health science area.  When combined with core requirements, students should be able to meet all the typical prerequisites required of the average DC degree program.
