History
Han University (formerly the Asian Institute of Medical Studies) was founded in the summer of 2000. It was approved by the Arizona Acupuncture Board of Examiners on April 3, 2001 and was granted a provisional license by the Arizona State Board for Private Postsecondary Education in May 2002 to offer two master's-level degrees in acupuncture and Oriental medicine. The school's program was granted candidate status by the Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in November 2003.
Programs Offered
Han University offers two master's degree programs: the Master of Acupuncture (MAc) and the Master of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (MAOM). The Master of Acupuncture program is three years in length, and the Master of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine program is three-and-a-half years in length. Both programs meet the standards established by the Council of Colleges of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (CCAOM). Each program follows the core curriculum as outlined by the Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (ACAOM) and qualifies graduates for licensure in the state of Arizona. The programs were designed for full-time study; however, part-time individualized course sequencing can be developed for students unable to attend full time. The MAc program must be completed within five years; the MAOM program must be completed within six years.
