New York Chiropractic College has received approval from the New York State Education Department to begin offering its new Master of Science in Human Anatomy and Physiology Instruction (MSHAPI) beginning in January 2011.
Delivered primarily online, the program is designed for doctors of chiropractic, other advanced health-care degree holders, and biologists with graduate degrees. Its graduates will be well-positioned to assume valuable teaching roles in colleges and universities.
"The MSHAPI approach is unique - it starts with a student already educated in anatomy and physiology course content and builds on that foundation, creating a highly trained instructional specialist for the undergraduate anatomy and physiology lecture room and laboratory," said Dr. Michael Mestan, executive vice president of academic affairs at NYCC.
Chiropractic students attending any accredited chiropractic institution may apply to enroll after successfully completing their anatomy and physiology course work. The curriculum for almost all aspects of this new program will be delivered online (excluding a one-week intensive teaching practicum held on the NYCC Seneca Falls campus).
For more information on this program please contact Kim McCrea, admissions counselor for graduate programs at kmccrea@nycc.edu or by telephone at 866-973-4679. You can also visit our Web site for program details.

Some doctors thrive in a personality-based clinic and have a loyal following no matter what services or equipment they offer, but for most chiropractic offices who are trying to grow and expand, new equipment purchases help us stay relevant and continue to service our client base in the best, most up-to-date manner possible. So, regarding equipment purchasing: should you lease, get a bank loan, or pay cash?
