Master of Oral Science

About the Program

The Master of Oral Science degree program offers students in-depth exploration of the biological foundations of oral health and disease through advanced scientific training and hands-on research. Designed for students eager to understand the complex interplay between oral and systemic health, the program blends rigorous coursework in biomedical sciences with laboratory experience. Students learn to frame scientific questions, apply experimental techniques, and critically interpret data, preparing them to contribute to the field’s growing body of knowledge.

Graduates of the Master of Oral Science program are equipped to pursue a range of career paths in academia, biomedical research, and public health. The program’s emphasis on independent inquiry and publication-ready research also provides strong preparation for those considering doctoral study or professional degrees in dentistry or related health sciences.

Curriculum

The Master of Oral Science is an academic, research-oriented program the goal of which is to provide students with expertise in the concepts of basic concepts of oral and craniofacial biology. The curriculum includes foundational science courses that are a part of the DDS curriculum and advanced foundational science courses that are included in the curricula of the postdoctoral programs.
