Why Study Biomedical Sciences - Chiropractic at Northwest Missouri State University

The biomedical science major emphasizing the chiropractic track is designed for students who want to enter the field.

With more chiropractic schools requiring a bachelor’s degree, Northwest offers a unique program that provides students with foundational knowledge in biomedical sciences for three years.
