British College of Osteopathic Medicine

About

The British College of Osteopathic Medicine (BCOM) www.bcom.ac.uk was founded in 1936 and it is a statutory regulated and accredited training facility, educational charity and centre of excellence in Osteopathic education, regulated by the Osteopaths act.

Story

BCOM has developed into one of the largest osteopathic colleges in the UK, with a sector-leading multi-part campus well located in London's Hampstead. All areas are adjoining and linked by walkways, giving a traditional “campus” atmosphere.

BCOM currently offers a four-year integrated Masters in Osteopathy and a ten-month post-basic-training academic conversion BSc (Hons) Osteopathy Conversion Course degree. The degrees are validated via the College’s partnership with Plymouth University.

Mission

The holistic approach to Osteopathy is central to the philosophy of the College. The purpose of our undergraduate courses is to guide student osteopaths through the acquisition of basic science and osteopathic technique skills towards an integrated clinical appraisal of patients. This allows the formulation of safe, effective, rational and caring treatment plans for as beneficial an outcome as is feasible in a given situation. This may be summarised by the following objectives:

To ensure that graduates acquire adequate clinical competence via a self-critical approach to integrated, learned skills.

To promote an attitude of inquiry and the maintenance of this attitude into professional life to keep abreast of current knowledge.

To instil a research ethos into practitioners of holistic Osteopathy.

To provide the general public, via the General Osteopathic Council in the UK , as well as in the wider European environment, with safe and competent practitioners of holistic Osteopathy.
