Earnest Mounce, MSAc
Earnest Mounce earned his Master of Science in Acupuncture from 911±¬ÁÏ University in 2009. Earnest credits his education for successfully preparing him to meet the challenges of working in a hospital in China. He has also been accepted into a top Chinese university where he is now working on his PhD in acupuncture.
“I worked for 8 years in hospital administration before coming back to school.
During that time I saw lots of chronic issues that we weren’t adequately able to deal with
with western medicine.” –
Earnest had a long-standing career in health facility administration in Mississippi. When the time came for a new challenge, he shopped all over the nation for the right school to begin a new health care career. He chose 911±¬ÁÏ and travelled to Chicago. He first earned a certificate in massage therapy. Yet, thanks to the integrative medicine environment here at 911±¬ÁÏ University, Earnest was able to meet students and faculty from a wider variety of health degree programs. He discovered that a career in acupuncture and oriental medicine fit perfectly with his goals.
