This programme provides a foundation in key materials science principles and training skills for successful research and publication, towards the development of the next generation of materials and processes.
There are very few aspects of dentistry that do not rely on materials, and the science of dental materials is arguably the most important subject that a dental practitioner, allied teacher or researcher should learn.
The one-year full-time (and two-year part-time) Masters programme welcomes students from a variety of backgrounds from clinical practitioners and dental technicians who are required to teach the subject, to those pursuing a career in a related research field, whether having a clinical or non-clinical undergraduate education, and whether from the UK or abroad.
To be eligible for the MSc[DMS], PGDip[DMS], PGCert[DMS], and in addition to the general requirements set by the University, you will:
hold the degree of Bachelor of Dental Surgery;
or
hold a degree or other relevant qualification for this purpose, e.g. BSc or diplomas in the physical or biomedical subject fields, dental technology
and
if required, satisfy examiners by means of a qualifying examination
20 Hours of Work permit weekly for international students.
English to IELTS 6.5 (with a minimum of 6.0 in each component).
If you need help with your English language skills then support is available.
The English for Academic Purposes Presessional course is for international students who have a conditional offer to study at the University, but who do not currently meet the English language requirements. The course is tailored to your level of English and allows you to meet the English language requirements for your programme without retaking IELTS. The EAP programme runs throughout the year and offers different programme lengths ranging from 6 to 42 weeks. The length of course you need depends on your future course, your existing IELTS score and the English level you need for your university degree.
