| Curriculum | The dental school has a strong reputation for educating fine clinicians and diagnosticians through a curriculum that involves progressive introduction to clinical training, integration of basic and applied clinical skills, and group and problem-based learning situations. During the students’ final year, the school offers experiences in outreach clinical practice sites and a comprehensive-care clinic setting within the school. The school also encourages students to take elective courses in dental and other disciplines to enhance their clinical, didactic and research knowledge base. The goal of the dental curriculum is to educate dental professionals whose scholarly capabilities, scientific acumen, cultural competency and interpersonal skills are commensurate with their clinical mastery. This goal will provide graduates with the flexibility to adapt to continuing changes in health care and to developments in the practice of dentistry. Student research opportunities: The summer research fellowship program during the first and second years provides a great opportunity for qualified students to conduct research with faculty mentors and contribute to the progress of dental and craniofacial research. |
