Overview
When Missouri College was founded in St. Louis, Missouri in 1963, the city's metropolitan area was in need of trained professionals in dental and medical offices. The College's original mission was to provide quality training to its students to meet that demand. Since that time, the College's programs have expanded to accommodate the ever-changing marketplace and the needs of employers. Missouri College still has its dental and healthcare programs but has since added programs in the areas of business and massage therapy. Most recently, in 2003, the College introduced its new visual communication program.
