As a student in an advanced degree program at Penn Dental Medicine, you will be a part of a vibrant interdisciplinary environment. A stimulating intellectual and social community of students and scholars from across Penn form a strong graduate student network, while the campus also offers extensive resources for academic support and personal enrichment.
Penn Dental Medicine offers a variety of advanced degree programs for both college graduates and dentists. The Master of Oral Health Sciences (MOHS) degree is designed to prepare participants for dental school admission and/or in other health sciences related careers. The program includes two separate tracks — the MOHS for Pre-Dental Track Students and the MOHS for Non-U.S.-Trained Dentists. The Master of Science in Oral Biology (MSOB) is offered to dental graduates who are in Penn Dental Medicine clinical residency programs and integrates extensive research and evidence-based learning into dental graduate education. The Master of Advanced Dental Studies (MADS) is designed for clinicians who wish to enhance their knowledge in a clinical discipline or improve their qualifications when applying to U.S. residency programs. This hybrid program in 7 dental specialties includes an interactive online platform as well as on-campus clinical rotations. The Doctor of Science in Dentistry (DScD) degree prepares dental graduates for academic careers as clinician scientists.
