Overview
This programme is designed to unify the basic and clinical sciences, as it is believed that scientific and professional development cannot be separated but should proceed concurrently throughout the programme. In the first two years students are taught the basic sciences of medicine and dentistry. From the third year on, there is more emphasis on the study of dental diseases and their treatment. The last two years serve as the intensive clinical study of each of the various disciplines of dentistry. In the final year students participate in elective programmes, clinical conferences and hospital-based trainings.
The Faculty of Dentistry is the regional centre established for dental care in the South-eastern region of Hungary. The graduates of the University are entitled to apply for hospital residency positions worldwide. Citizens of the EU will receive their licenses automatically within the Community.

Programme structure
Throughout the basic module – the first two years – students are taught basic sciences, all the while starting to meet patients during their summer practice. The preclinical module – the third year – prepares students for the clinical patient care by focusing on mastering the manual skills that will be applied later on. The clinical module – the last two years of the programme – is dedicated to the intensive clinical study of each of the various disciplines of dentistry, where students treat real patients under close supervision of their tutors
