Doctor of Chiropractic Master's of Science in Biology D.C./M.S. (Cooperative Degree Program)
Improve the Lives of Others as a Chiropractor
Chiropractors enjoy a rewarding and stable career addressing the health needs of people who wish to work with a health professional who will treat their injuries or ailments non-surgically and without prescription drugs. The Texas Chiropractic College (TCC) and the University of Houston-Clear Lake have established a Cooperative Doctor of Chiropractic Master's of Science in Biology Degree Program to ensure your skills encompass both the physiological and clinical needs of your patients.
Your Career Helps People Return to Health and Mobility
As chiropractic care becomes more widespread, your skills will equip you for new and
exciting opportunities that continue to open for those who obtain the Doctor of Chiropractic
degree. As the average life expectancy of the population increases, more people will
be turning to chiropractors for care and treatment. This degree plan will help you
prepare for a successful life as a chiropractor by delivering a course of study that
is practical, rooted in scientific principles and packed with hands-on education experiences.
