CurriculumThe D.D.S. curriculum includes 11 semesters of instruction. During the first
and second years, students study the basic sciences, preclinical dentistry
and early clinic courses through lecture, computer-assisted self-instruction,
laboratory experience and clinical activities. Classrooms and labs have
multimedia audio-visual capabilities. Interactive learning technology
(TurningPoint®) is utilized. Using written, oral and lab examinations/skill
tests, faculty members evaluate student performance in basic science and
preclinical courses. Some didactic and lab courses continue into the third
and fourth years. During the third and fourth years, there is a significant
emphasis on clinical experiences and patient treatment. Students acquire
clinical experience under faculty supervision in the college clinic and are
evaluated on their daily performance. Clinical experience is self-paced and
includes requirements. Programs in general practice, care for homebound
patients and training at off-site clinics are included and required.
