| Mission | The Dental School mission is the acquisition, dissemination and use of knowledge toward the enhancement of oral health. The mission is addressed through six interrelated action components: education, research, patient care, community, faculty and staff, and infrastructure. |

| Curriculum | The educational program embraces the philosophy of comprehensive care. Dental preclinical courses begin the freshman year so that a significant component of patient care may be incorporated into the sophomore year. Clinical patient care and research activities for students are emphasized in our program. An electronic curriculum support system uses a specifically configured laptop computer to access current information through integrated multimedia searches. The ability to access information in real time is an important feature of the curriculum and directly supports the school’s mission of developing forward-thinking dentists capable of independent learning throughout their practicing careers. |
