Admissions

Curriculum

The program has an extremely rigorous, graduate-level curriculum that improves our students’ academic preparedness for dental school admission. Through DMD courses taking alongside BU DMD I students and graduate level coursework through Graduate Medical Sciences of BU’s Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine, students improve their study and test taking skills as well as their ability to not only memorize facts, but to also integrate concepts at a much higher level.

In addition to its academic rigor, the program also offers its students the flexibility to decide whether they wish to graduate in 12 or 24 months. Most students complete the program in 12 months by submitting a Capstone project, while two-year students can complete a research-based thesis on a topic of their choice in the field of dentistry. Faculty from both the BU Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine and Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine serve as teachers and mentors enriching their educational experience while in GMS.
