Established in 1892 by the founder of osteopathy, A. T. Still, M.D., D.O., ATSU began as the nation’s first college of osteopathic medicine and has evolved into a leading university of health sciences. Today we offer more than 20 master’s degrees across allied health disciplines; doctorates in health education, physical therapy, and audiology; the doctor of dental medicine (D.M.D.); and the doctor of osteopathic medicine (D.O.).
ATSU educates students to become whole person healthcare professionals who continuously develop and demonstrate compassion and competency. We believe this commitment to our students, and by extension to the patients they will treat in the future, makes us the most distinctive health sciences university in the country.
ATSU is comprised of five schools: Arizona School of Dentistry & Oral Health (ASDOH), Arizona School of Health Sciences (ASHS), Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine (KCOM), School of Health Management (SHM) and School of Osteopathic Medicine in Arizona (SOMA).
The University is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA), 30 North LaSalle St., Suite 2400, Chicago, IL 60602. Phone 800.621.7440.
