| Curriculum | The objective of the program at the University of Alabama at Birmingham is to produce competent and caring oral health care providers. Our goal is to foster an academic environment that encourages the process of inquiry and the scientific method of problem solving. While much of the first two years of school is focused on basic science education, students interact with patients very early in the curriculum. The program is organized so that dental students function as assistants in their first year and hygienists in their second year; the third and fourth years are devoted to comprehensive care of patients. Specialty electives are available in the fourth year for students who progress briskly through the curriculum. The school emphasizes progressive education techniques, which include traditional lectures, small-group interactions, problem-based learning and a systems-based basic science education. |
