San Francisco, CA -- Beginning Spring 2008, the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine will begin offering its Master's degree program in an evening/weekend schedule. The new schedule option will hold classes two to three evenings per week and all day on Saturday, and will take four and a half years to complete.
According to Megan Haungs. L.Ac, Dean of ACTCM's Master's Program, the new schedule was created to reach out to those students who are committed to pursuing their education in traditional Chinese medicine, but were facing challenges due to obligations such as family and work schedules. According to Haungs, the schedule will offer classes during the evening and weekends for the programs' first three years. During the last four semesters, students will be able to pick from several scheduling options to complete specialty classes and the clinical portion of the program.
"We are very excited to be able to offer this scheduling option to students. We realize that many of our most dedicated students have other commitments and obligations outside of their education, and our evening/weekend schedule will accommodate their needs while enabling them to receive the high quality education of our Master's program", Haungs said. The College will be adding its new evening/weekend schedule option to its current line-up of full time, 3/4 time and half-time weekday track options.
American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, a non-profit institution, has provided affordable, quality health care to the public and trained professionals in acupuncture and Chinese medicine since 1980. ACTCM has been the recipient of many awards for its curriculum, faculty and clinic, and has been voted "Best of the Bay" by both the San Francisco Weekly and the San Francisco Bay Guardian.
