Health Sciences University, formerly AECC University College, is a specialist university in Bournemouth (with a dedicated school of osteopathy in London) that offers undergraduate, postgraduate, and short courses in a range of health sciences disciplines.
These include chiropractic, diagnostic and therapeutic radiography, physiotherapy, sports rehabilitation, sport and exercise psychology, clinical exercise and rehabilitation, and sport and exercise science.
As a specialist provider, this range of courses sits alongside teaching and clinical facilities based onsite, including a large clinic, MRI, ultrasound, X-ray, and rehabilitation gym.
The university operates a large community-based chiropractic clinic that provides subsidised treatments, supports student placements, and is a base for research and development activities. A new integrated rehabilitation centre was opened in October 2022.
