Three research centres are located at DPU: the Centre for Digital Technologies in Dental Medicine and CAD/CAM under the direction of Univ.-Prof. Dr. Constantin von See MaHM, the Centre for the Natural and Cultural History of Man under the direction of Univ.-Prof. Dr. Kurt W. Alt, and the Biosciences Centre under the direction of Assoc. Prof. Dr. Peter Engel, each with globally recognised publications in high-impact-factor journals. These research foci result in research projects with around 30 renowned partner universities worldwide, as well as with the cooperating industry.

The Faculty of Medicine/Dentistry puts value on a special practical orientation from the beginning of the study program. In the second semester, students in the subject area of “Introduction to Clinical Dentistry“ are already introduced to patients. The internship “Career Field Identification“ takes place after an introduction of the University in the form of work shadowing in selected cooperating practices instead. In four of the six pre-clinical semesters, DPU students come into contact with patients and clinical issues
