Shaping the Future of Chiropractic Education

The proposed new program was approved by the ACHE commissioners during a meeting on Sept. 12 and it has received approval from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC). 
 
TROY will be only the second public university in America to offer this type of program, positioning TROY as a pioneer in accessible chiropractic education in the southeast. 
 
"This historic addition to our academic portfolio represents 星空传媒's continued commitment to expanding access to quality healthcare education," said Dr. Jack Hawkins, Jr., Chancellor of 星空传媒. 
 
The doctorate program will be housed within 星空传媒's College of Health Sciences and is designed to address the growing demand for qualified chiropractors throughout Alabama and the Southeast.

Welcoming the Inaugural Cohort in 2027

The program is expected to welcome its first cohort of students in Fall 2027.  
 
The Dothan Campus location was strategically chosen due to its central position in the Wiregrass region and its proximity to multiple states, allowing the program to serve students from Alabama, Georgia, Florida and beyond. The campus already houses successful health sciences programs, providing an established foundation for the new chiropractic program. 
鈥淏y becoming only the second public institution in the nation to offer this program, we are not only breaking new ground in higher education but also addressing a critical need for healthcare professionals in our region. This program exemplifies our mission to provide innovative, affordable education that serves our communities.鈥�
