Program Doktorancki z Chiropraktyki

Our four year Doctor of Chiropractic Program provides an integrative curriculum aligned with CMCC's Model of Care: Chiropractic is a primary contact health care profession with expert knowledge in spinal and musculoskeletal health, emphasizing differential diagnosis, patient-centred care, and research. The curriculum ensures that beginning in Year I and increasingly throughout the program, students learn to integrate and apply theoretical knowledge to clinical practice, patient care and management.

Taught in a series of four modules per academic year, courses and content are layered over single or multiple modules to facilitate the essential integration of knowledge, skill and practice.

In Year I and Year II, students build their foundation of knowledge in basic sciences and pathology for clinical skills and decision making while also getting hands-on experience through chiropractic skills, diagnosis and symptomatology, orthopaedics and diagnostic imaging.

Year III emphasizes knowledge integration through case-based clinical material to prepare students for internship in the CMCC clinics.

Year IV is a 12-month clinical internship in two of CMCC's clinical settings where interns provide direct care and education to patients under a licensed chiropractor's supervision. Year IV students also engage in laboratory clerkships and advanced diagnostic imaging, public health and business management.
