Texas Health and Science University is a higher education institution based in Austin, Texas, founded in 1990. It offers an oriental medicine program designed to prepare graduates for NCCAOM certification and Texas licensure, emphasizing a classical and holistic approach to traditional Chinese medicine. The curriculum integrates acupuncture, herbology, qigong, and tuina, with a structure that includes three 15-week trimesters and flexible day or night/weekend options to accommodate students’ other commitments. The university positions itself within the allied health and traditional medicine space, aiming to deepen foundational knowledge drawn from classical texts and to support patient care through a comprehensive treatment philosophy. The institution is accredited by ACICS and ACAOM and serves a relatively small student body, reflecting its specialized focus within higher education. A recent notable activity includes participation in a multicampus event and ceremony, indicating ongoing engagement with broader traditional medicine communities.
