Question
Should I be in Kinesiology or Biological Sciences for my major if I want to become a chiropractor? Can Doctors of Chiropractic be hired to work for the military?
You would want to focus you major in the biological sciences. Your course of study in chiropractic school would include anatomy, physiology, chemistry, histology, etc, as well as the diagnostic and chiropractic specific classes. As of this time, the national organizations have lobbied for acceptance of chiropractors as officers; I am not sure of the status. There is also currently a pilot program of chiropractors attached to VA hospitals
