TROY, Ala. (WDNews) — Troy University has announced the launch of its newest doctoral program, the Doctor of Chiropractic.
The program marks a historic step for the institution, becoming only the second Doctor of Chiropractic program offered at a public university in the nation and the first located in the Southeast.
University officials said the program will help address the growing need for chiropractic care in the region while creating new opportunities for students interested in health sciences. While most chiropractic programs in the United States are offered by private institutions, Troy’s public program is expected to make training more accessible and affordable.
The university currently offers several doctoral-level degrees across fields such as nursing, education and global leadership. The addition of the chiropractic program expands its portfolio of advanced health care education.
Details on enrollment timelines, curriculum, and program leadership are expected to be released in the coming months.
