Committed to Cultural Diversity and Healing
The master's in holistic health online curriculum draws on knowledge from all corners of life and all disciplines of study. You will research emerging and integrative models of healthcare, and learn to understand yourself and the current holistic health movement in the historical context of social change.
At the core of the holistic health graduate program is a commitment to cultural diversity and a respect for indigenous and ancient healing practices.

Our students are motivated by their interest in meaning and purpose in their lives. They are passionate about creating healthier and more vibrant communities by learning and integrating holistic practices, both personally and professionally. You’ll have the opportunity to engage in research that is relevant to your own journey, advancing your knowledge and contributing to the field.
Classes will be held in a synchronous online format.
