Through our Lateral Entry Program at the International Academy of Osteopathy (IAO®), you can obtain the internationally recognized Master of Science in Osteopathy within a minimum of two academic years, in collaboration with our academic partner Buckinghamshire New University.
Depending on your previous education and professional experience, you will follow a personalized study track that includes clinical training, case studies, theoretical and practical examinations, and a master’s thesis, all designed to further strengthen your osteopathic expertise within our academic framework.
Each module is organized over three consecutive days (Friday 4:30 PM–8:15 PM, Saturday 8:00 AM–6:45 PM, and Sunday 8:00 AM–4:15 PM). The schedule for the next academic year will be available online from early April.
