Overview

You will develop a broad understanding of the philosophy of dental public health, and in particular the underlying social, economic and political determinants of health.

The Dental Public Health programme offered at the University College London (UCL) is designed to encourage maximum student participation and involvement, and is based upon small group teaching seminars, where a questioning approach is actively encouraged, enabling students to challenge the basis for current dental policy and practice.

Assessment is through internal assignments, examination, oral presentation and the research dissertation.

written and oral communication skills including report writing and oral presentations,
