Dual Enrollment Master of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine and Doctor of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine Degree (MAHM/DAHM)

​​​​The Dual Enrollment MAHM/DAHM program is a single 4-year program conferring two degrees at graduation. The dual degree program expands on our master’s program to include advanced competencies and studies in specialty areas commonly seen in clinical practice – Orthopedics, Neurology, Endocrinology, Obstetrics, and Cardiology.

Faculty members bring years of practical experience into the classroom, helping students learn beyond what can be conveyed through textbooks. The supportive classroom environment allows students to learn effectively and feel comfortable putting theories into practice in a clinical setting.

The best way to learn this patient-centered medicine is to be immersed in-person with your instructors and classmates. While the program incorporates online coursework, in-person learning helps develop important skills you need as a practitioner – building rapport, communicating face-to-face, and practicing hands-on skills.

 
Daoist Traditions utilizes a track system where students begin and complete the program at the same time – so you are with the same group of students for four years. By consistently meeting in-person with the same group, you develop a deep sense of community with your classmates.

All applicants who meet the doctoral admissions requirements are encouraged to enroll in the dual degree program. Applicants who enroll in the master’s degree program have limited time to apply to the doctoral program and must apply in specific admissions cycles between years one and two. After that time, students must complete the master’s program before applying to the Doctoral Professional Track.
