All programs are fully accredited and provide a wide range of career opportunities and professional challenges. Established in 1997, Touro offers outstanding curricular programs and thousands of networking opportunities for students so they can intern with state-of-the-art facilities throughout California and the nation. Our low student-to-faculty ratio coupled with an open-door policy for faculty, make it one of the friendliest universities for graduate programs. Our private, nonprofit institution was founded on a caring Judaic tradition, which values the pursuit of knowledge and service to humanity. Faculty, staff and students have a powerful commitment to academic excellence, evidence-based professional practice, interdisciplinary collaboration and active engagement with a global community. Our values are evident in classroom, laboratory and research settings, community clinics and off-campus rotations. The university mission of Educating Caring Professionals “To Serve, To Lead, and To Teach” is more than words on paper - the mission is a real, visible and interactive experience. Touro College, now Touro University, was established in 1971 to enrich the Jewish heritage, and to serve the larger American community. More than 19,000 students are currently enrolled.
