School of Dentistry
CURRICULUM
To foster future dental professionals who are sensitive yet global, the department has systematically connected its general education and specialized subjects to its six-year program. In the first two years, students register for the courses in the liberal arts, which focuses on the student’s character formation, along with clinical and basic laboratory training. In the following two years, students take classes focusing on dentistry and medical knowledge. Various medical subjects relating to dentistry are prepared at this stage, and students can acquire wide-ranging medical knowledge. Additionally, they can learn the importance of gaining hands-on expertise through practical subjects. From the fifth year, students receive practical training for approximately one year at our affiliated hospital. Experience in an actual medical setting in 14 clinical areas, attendance at consultations, and practical training in a hospital environment meet the requirements to become a dental professional of the new era.
