Bachelor Degree in Chiropractic

The BCC curriculum – With the assistance of curriculum development experts, and with feedback from major stakeholders, the BCC has developed its unique curriculum that strives to marry the discipline of chiropractic with advanced teaching, learning and assessment strategies.

Bilingual College

BCC is an international college with two official languages – Spanish and English. During the first year, the College provides simultaneously translated lectures and supportive language courses, to enable students to follow classes while improving their language. During the last two years, most theory classes are taught in English while practical experience takes place in Spanish.

Science, Art, and Philosophy

Traditionally, chiropractic was based on three fundamental pillars: Philosophy, Science, and Art. Finding the balance between these three pillars in developing the curriculum is a priority for our academic team. In keeping with chiropractic principles, the curriculum combines the study of basic and clinical sciences with a deep reflection on the body’s ability to optimize health.

Research

From the beginning, our curriculum enables students to acquire understanding and practice of the scientific investigation, evidence-informed practice, and critical/analytical thinking. As a result, students are well prepared for carrying out a major research Project in the final years of the program of the study.

Clinical Experience

Early contact with patients is essential and thus, the BCC offers its students the opportunity to observe and interact with experienced chiropractors caring for patients in the BCC Chiropractic Centre. Throughout the 4th and 5th years students, provide evidence-based chiropractic care to patients whilst under the close supervision of well-trained professionals.

Chiropractic is the largest natural health care profession in the world. Now established in over 70 countries , this rapidly growing discipline has 90,000 professionals trained at accredited colleges/universities predominantly located in North America and Anglo-Saxon countries.

Chiropractic is a primary contact health care profession that is well established in a number of countries around the world. Chiropractic focuses on the relationship between the body’s structure – mainly the spine – and it’s functioning, as regulated by the nervous system.

Chiropractors offer an approach, that uses neither drugs nor surgery, but instead focuses on providing adjustments to the spine with the goal of correcting functional problems and supporting the body’s natural ability to heal itself.
