Course Overview
The program will ordinarily require one year of full-time registration; however, it is the Faculty's expectation that students will normally remain in full-time attendance on campus to enable full participation in departmental activities for two years. The first year of the program will include development of a research project and proposal, and course work, while the second year will be devoted largely to research and thesis completion and defense. This graduate program appeals to: applicants who have a degree in dentistry and who are pursuing research training and advanced clinical education leading to qualification in one of 10 dental specialty disciplines; andapplicants, both dentists and non-dentists, who are pursuing graduate research training without advanced clinical education.
