Master's in Dental Medicine

Nova Southeastern University (NSU) places a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary education, encouraging students to explore connections between different fields and fostering a holistic approach to learning. NSU is recognized for its research contributions, particularly in fields such as marine science, psychology, and health professions. The university's state-of-the-art facilities and laboratories support hands-on learning and exploration. With a focus on preparing students for real-world challenges, NSU integrates experiential learning opportunities, internships, and community engagement into its academic fabric. The campus is known for its inclusive and welcoming atmosphere, providing a supportive environment for students to thrive both academically and personally.

The goal of the Master of Science program of the College of Dental Medicine is to provide advanced training in research and research methodology to students, primarily those enrolled in one of the College of Dental Medicine postdoctoral programs. All master's degree candidates are required to complete a core curriculum of courses, emphasis tract courses, and a research thesis. Research in this program includes various aspects of advanced biological science / material science / issues related to oral health and disease. Graduates of this master's degree program will be trained to think critically, enabling them to more readily pursue research activities and academic careers. For postdoctoral students enrolled in the master's program, requirements for both the postdoctoral program certification and the Master of Science research program (MSCDM) will be fulfilled concurrently.
