Beschreibung des Programms

The University of Western States (UWS)  flagship doctor of chiropractic program is a rigorous, 12-quarter doctoral program that is designed to be completed in three years. Taught on our beautiful campus in Portland, Oregon, students learn from experienced faculty with practice experience and clinical training. Students gain real-world knowledge to treat patients more effectively and with a relationship-centric approach.

As the second-oldest chiropractic school in the world, UWS has an innovative, evidence-informed approach to whole-person care; it combines research, strong academics, doctors’ knowledge, and the inclusion of the patient’s or client’s personal evidence in pursuing courses of treatment. The curriculum is structured to integrate concepts and skills across the basic, clinical, and chiropractic sciences that are applied to clinical reasoning, diagnosis, and patient outcomes.

At UWS, sound education in foundational and applied sciences, complemented by research and collaboration within the healthcare community is crucial to mastering the intricacies of treating the whole human being. The comprehensive DC curriculum is evidence-informed and focuses on the whole-person approach to health care.
