Our Story
Named for its founder and first president Hugh B. Logan, DC, Logan University opened in 1935 under the name Logan Basic College of Chiropractic. Its first class of seven men and women enrolled that fall and would go on to graduate in 1939.
Between 1958 and 1964, Logan merged with Carver College of Chiropractic from Oklahoma City as well as Missouri Chiropractic College. Following these mergers, Logan changed its name to Logan College of Chiropractic.
In 1973, Logan acquired its current campus in Chesterfield, Missouri, with buildings that once housed Maryknoll Seminary. After undergoing several campus renovations and expansions, MSNBC named Logan one of “America’s Most Beautiful Campuses” in 2007.
For more than 90 years, Logan has remained grounded in chiropractic education with its flagship Doctor of Chiropractic program and has expanded degree offerings within its College of Health Sciences, home to online and oncampus programs at the doctorate, master’s, and bachelor’s levels.
Through an innovative, outcome-based academic curriculum that emphasizes evidence-informed care, diverse clinical immersion opportunities, emerging technology and proven practices, Logan University graduates are trained to be confident leaders in health and prepared for the future.
