Traditional Chinese Medicine
The Master of Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine (MSTCM) is a comprehensive program carefully designed to lead beginning students to the level of knowledge and clinical proficiency necessary to become a successful independent health care provide, whether as an individual practitioner or as part of a team of health care providers. From the very beginning of the program, ACTCM emphasizes hands-on clinical training in conjunction with the study of theoretical material, allowing students to gain an understanding and appreciation of the depth of the medicine. The acupuncture curriculum is designed to lead the student to proficiency in acupuncture and its related modalities; moxibustion, cupping and massotherapy. The approach involves extensive hands-on instruction along with explanation of the principles and concepts underlying the medicine. Training takes place in several stages and generally takes three to four years.
