Research
Northeast College is committed to an evidence-informed, science-based approach to healthcare.
Northeast College provides opportunities for students and faculty to conduct cutting-edge research as principal investigators, co-investigators, research assistants and clinicians. Through expert investigations and independent research, we push our understanding of patient care by finding new, even better ways to treat not just the whole body, but the whole person.
Northeast is full of open doors. You simply have to walk through them.
