Life University

According to the school, the mission of Life University is to educate its students in a set of core life proficiencies, equipping them to become skilled professionals, and preparing them for successful careers focused on serving the health needs of society. To fulfill this mission, the University, an institution based on contemporary vitalistic principles, offers high quality, integrative programs in chiropractic, biology, nutrition, sports health science, general studies and business. \r\n\r\nWith its vitalistic vision, clearly defined performance proficiencies and measurable criteria for success, a Life University education will produce leaders who exemplify humanistic values and, in a world where change is constant, provide innovative approaches to direct that change to elevate society and evolve its health care system.\r\n\r\nOur Purpose is to provide students with the vision to fulfill their innate potential, the inspiration to engage in a quest for self-discovery, and the ability to apply a principled approach to their future roles as leaders in humanitarian service and as citizens in their community. \r\n\r\nFrom its founding in 1974 as a college of chiropractic, Life University has embraced the idea that humans are spiritual beings whose lives are directed by universal laws including the natural, vitalistic, innate ability to develop, heal and adapt as long as the body is kept free of interferences. Our approach has been to graduate highly skilled chiropractors that can correct those interferences and can educate their patients to accept responsibility for their own good health. \r\n\r\nToday that vision of Life University is sustained in its chiropractic, undergraduate, and masters programs, which set the standard of excellence in contemporary health care education. A participatory learning environment develops eight core proficiencies through contemporary, proven techniques that encourage optimal performance and lifelong intellectual growth. \r\n
