Kirksville College through Grand Canyon University is offering several masters programs in related fields starting in Fall 1995. They are:
- Physical Therapy (50 student/year)
- OccupationalThearpy (30 students/year)
- Physicians Assistant (25 students/year)
- Sports Health Medicine (15 students/year)
Because of the prerequisites at Grand Canyon for their pre-health programs, it is strongly suggested to see an advisor at
Grand Canyon to plan courses to take at the community college. Any preparatory science and math through algebra and trigonometry,
as well as other nonscience credits should be taken at the community college. |
