To inculcate in our graduates the highest standards of ethical and moral responsibility to the dental profession and to the communities they serve. The foundation courses in the basic biomedical sciences are taught during the first two years followed by clinical courses and clinical experiences in the next two years. However, throughout the four years, the basic science and clinical science curriculum are integrated to prepare the students to be outstanding clinicians. Student research opportunities: Students participate during the summer in our research lab or at other institutions such as The Johns Hopkins University. They also compete and present scientific research projects nationally. |
