Overview

The Science Chinese Herbology programme from University of Bridgeport will be primarily residential with students completing 50% of their course work and 100% of their clinical rotations in residence. The Asian/Chinese Herbology (ACH) courses will be offered in the blended format with 50% of the didactic programme offered online and 50% during 4 weekends each semester, and an additional 3 weekends each summer for a total of 11 weekends a year. Students will participate in an online environment to complete their Asian/Chinese Herbology studies.

The course is limited to those who currently hold licensure or registration as healthcare professionals. The MS-CH programme will not expand graduates’ scope of practice.
