Few health careers are as flexible as that of the chiropractic profession. Typically, a chiropractor is self-employed; so for students who love helping others and making a good income but also want to keep their options open when it comes to hours and location, a chiropractic career can be an ideal destination. Take the first step to getting there at MTSU.

Students completing a three-year program, coupled with one year of successful work in chiropractic school, will satisfy the course requirements needed to receive a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Science from MTSU's Department of Chemistry.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a 28 percent increase in chiropractor employment opportunities between 2010 and 2020.
