Overview

About Oral and Craniofacial Sciences at University of Missouri - Kansas City

The overall goals of the Oral & Craniofacial Sciences (OCS) MS program are to train students to critically evaluate and apply scientific literature, to provide students basic research skills and to produce graduates who will advance scientific knowledge in oral and craniofacial health sciences.

This program includes advanced work in basic, behavioral and clinical sciences relating to dentistry. The OCS MS program is designed for students who are concurrently enrolled in advanced dental residency certificate programs. Those interested in applying for a residency program (Orthodontics, Periodontics, Endodontics) and also interested in a Master of Science degree should note that an application to the OCS MS program would be subsequent to their acceptance into the residency program.

The coursework and thesis present an opportunity for the student to cross traditional departmental lines and undertake an interdisciplinary approach to the study of problems related to oral and craniofacial sciences. On successful completion of all necessary coursework and thesis requirements, the student is awarded a Master of Science degree in Oral & Craniofacial Sciences.
