Oral Biology - Boston University

Oral Biology from Boston University is a Campus Certificate Dentistry degree that prepares you for a Healthcare career. The oral biology program is designed for students who wish to pursue an academic and research-oriented career. As such, the program is flexible and is especially suited for students whose interests may span more than one discipline. Research programs focusing on oral medicine-related problems may be conducted in conjunction with other departments within Boston University Medical Center or affiliated institutions. Every effort is made to provide training in research that will enable students completing this program to continue as independent investigators. In conjunction with their basic research studies, students receive advanced training and experience in biomedical specialties. This training may lead to an MSD, DSc, DScD, or PhD. With the approval of the appropriate clinical department, students may opt for a combined program that includes training in one of the clinical specialties (periodontology, endodontics, operative dentistry, prosthodontics, dental public health, oral and maxillofacial surgery, pediatric dentistry, or orthodontics), leading to the additional award of the Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study. The clinical requirements of the selected specialty program must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of that department's faculty. The MSD program can normally be completed in two years. Attainment of the DSc or DScD degree requires a minimum of three years. The PhD program requires a minimum of five years of study. Requirements for combination with a clinical specialty depend on the requirements of the chosen specialty. View more details on Boston University .
