Course summary

The School of Dental, Health and Care Professions offers exceptional health, dental and social care education to meet the current and future needs of the health, dental and social care sectors. Within the school we explore a number of health sciences. We offer comprehensive oral and dental healthcare to the public and alongside this we help to train a larger health and care workforce of paramedics, dental nurses, dental hygienists, dental therapists, adult nurses, mental health nurses, radiographers, physiotherapists and operating department practitioners. Teaching Our undergraduate and postgraduate degrees cover all major aspects of healthcare and dentistry, providing an educational platform that bridges the gap between science and application – so our students graduate with the skills required to succeed, and an understanding of how to use them. We follow the core values of the NHS with an emphasis on practical teaching so our students can start treating patients – under the close supervision of qualified staff – early in their studies. We also support our students through a personal tutor system and on some courses, using an app-based longitudinal assessment method to track students clinical progress and provide continuous feedback. Our research is focused on delivering evidence-based health care to our patients and the community, on improving the quality of dental education, and in the area of clinical innovation and dental materials.
