About Dentistry
About Dentistry
M.Sc. in Dental Sciences
The goal of this program is to train students in research in the dental sciences, which comprise a number of disciplines relating to the functioning of the oro-facial complex.
M.Sc. in Dental Sciences, Option in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
A residency training program in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery provides candidates with a comprehensive background for the practice of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery as a specialty.
During the four years of the program, the candidate serves as a resident principally at the Montreal General Hospital. During this time, the resident is given increasing responsibility for the care of in-patients and out-patients, as well as being required to fulfil certain basic science courses and other assignments. A research project must be undertaken, followed by a master's thesis.
The program is open to one candidate per year.
Ph.D. (Ad Hoc)
The Faculty of Dentistry also offers the possibility of directly entering a Ph.D. program on an ad hoc basis, or, with the permission of the supervisor and the approval of the Graduate Program Director, exceptional students may transfer from the M.Sc. to the ad hoc Ph.D. program.
