National College of Natural Medicine (NCNM) is a school of naturopathic medicine and Classical Chinese medicine located in Portland, Oregon, United States. Founded in 1956, it is the oldest programmatically of the seven Council on Naturopathic Medical Education accredited naturopathic programs in North America. Until July 1, 2006, NCNM was known as the National College of Naturopathic Medicine. The school has approximately 553 students. NCNM's programs are controversial for teaching subjects that are considered pseudoscience and quackery by the scientific and medical communities.〔〔 ==Academic programs== NCNM has three schools: The School of Naturopathic Medicine, the School of Classical Chinese medicine and the School of Research and Graduate Studies. It offers four professional graduate degree programs: The Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine (ND), Master of Science in Integrative Medicine Research (MSiMR), Master of Science in Oriental Medicine (MSOM), and Master of Acupuncture (MAc). These programs include preparation and clinical practice in Holism.〔(ACAOM - Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine Professionals . . .

The School of Research and Graduate Studies offers a two-year Master of Science in Integrative Medical Research (MSiMR), a program for students interested in complementary and alternative medicine. The Master of Science in Oriental Medicine (MSOM) program is a four-year program in the classical foundations of Chinese medicine. Students receive training in herbalism, acupuncture, moxibustion, Asian bodywork, qigong and nutrition. The Master of Acupuncture (MAc) is a three-year program focusing on classical acupuncture and moxibustion, and providing a shorter course of study, with less theory and herbal instruction. Beginning in summer 2014, the School of Research and graduate Studies will also offer a one-year Master of Science in Nutrition (MScN), a program that will focus on diets based on whole, unprocessed foods, offering training in cooking, teaching and nutrition counseling. NCNM is a member of the American Association of Naturopathic Medical Colleges and is accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities, the Council on Naturopathic Medical Education and the Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「National College of Natural Medicine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
