Why SBCOM is Unique
SBCOM is a small college (100 students). This means student/faculty ratio is lower and allows for more genuine individualized attention. SBCOM staff are sincerely interested and invested in the well being of our students.
Mission Statement
The mission of the Santa Barbara College of Oriental Medicine is to provide professional post-secondary education and compassionate health care in Traditional Oriental Medicine.
Philosophy
SBCOM’s philosophy is that Eastern and Western medicine are complementary systems of health. By providing a strong education in Oriental medicine, and a fundamental understanding of Western theory and clinical practice, SBCOM promotes their combined usefulness for the prevention and treatment of disease.
Our goal is to educate our students to be healers and to learn how to heal themselves as well. Harmony must start in the educational process for it to be truly learned. We support our students, faculty and administration in communicating with deep compassion and understanding so that harmony can be maintained. It is the goal of our college to not only provide instruction for patient healing but also healing for the individual practitioner, their community and the world at large. In plain English, we strive always to "practice what we teach".
SBCOM is committed to being a leader in the enhancement of health by integrating Traditional Oriental Medicine and its principles into the community through the college’s community education and outreach, low cost treatment and research projects.
Brief History
Santa Barbara College of Oriental Medicine opened in December of 1986 as an independent, single purpose institution of postsecondary education. SBCOM grew out of the Santa Barbara branch of the California Acupuncture College that was originally established in 1981 under the directorship of JoAnn Tall. With hundreds of graduates, our college has a firmly established reputation of quality education in a small and intimate setting.
On the national level, SBCOM’s professional Master of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine degree program is accredited by the Accreditation Commission of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. The state of California recognizes SBCOM as a Master’s degree granting institution. We are approved under the United States Department of Education to offer eligible students financial aid.
