Sonoran University of Health Sciences (formerly Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine & Health Sciences) is a fully-accredited university[1] dedicated to a comprehensive team approach to health sciences education in the fields of medicine, nutrition, and mental health. Complementing patient care with innovative research and natural medicine backed by science[2], both Sonoran University students and graduates are using a uniquely different mindset to change healthcare.

Sonoran University’s on-site Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine degree program blends unique opportunities for learning like the Neil Riordan Center for Regenerative Medicine with an evolving curriculum that keeps pace with changing medicine. Sonoran University’s College of Nutrition offers two fully online Master of Science degrees, one in Clinical Nutrition and the other tailored to executives for Nutrition Business Leadership.
