ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
In order to be admitted to the Master's Degree in Dentistry, the candidate must have attained a five-year upper secondary school diploma or another qualification obtained abroad and recognised as suitable under the regulations in force.
The single cycle master's degree in dentistry is subject to limited number according to Article 1 of Law 264/99.
The teaching organization requires that students admitted to the first year of the course have an adequate knowledge of the Italian language and an initial preparation, obtained in the course of their previous studies, covering knowledge in the fields of logic, general culture, biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics.
The student's initial knowledge is verified by passing the admission test, which is regulated by a special Ministerial Decree issued by MIUR each year. Students admitted to the course who show initial deficiencies will be assigned an additional training obligation (OFA) which must be met during the first year of the course on the basis of criteria defined in the Regulations of the Course of Study.
FINAL EXAMINATION
For the purpose of taking the final examination, the student must have taken all the courses and passed the related examinations.
Pursuant to Articles 1 and 3 of Law n. 163 of 8 November 2021, the final examination for a single-cycle Master's Degree in Dentistry and Dental Prosthetics - class LM-46 qualifies the candidate to practise as a dentist. For this purpose, the aforementioned final examination includes the performance of a Practical Assessment Test (PPV) of the professional skills acquired through an internal Practical-Valuative Internship (PTV) within the study courses, aimed at ascertaining the candidate's level of practical preparation for the licence to practise the profession, which precedes the discussion of the dissertation. The Practical Assessment Test consists in the discussion of three multidisciplinary clinical cases treated as first practitioner during the Practical-Valuative Internship, involving multidisciplinary treatment plans with services relating to the majority of the disciplines covered by the Practical-Valuative Internship, according to the methods identified by the protocol drawn up by the Conference of Presidents of the Degree Courses in Dentistry and Dental Prosthetics, in agreement with the National Dental Register Commission. In order to pass the Practical Assessment Test, students must obtain an aptitude mark, following which they will gain access to the discussion of the final dissertation.
The discussion of the final dissertation involves the presentation of an original dissertation prepared by the student under the guidance of a supervising professor. The dissertation committee acts as co-supervisor during the discussion, otherwise the figure of a co-supervisor may be appointed. The final mark is determined in Committee in line with the regulations laid down by the University.
The modality of implementation of the final examination and its timing are defined in the academic calendar, published on the University website and communicated by the Student Administration Office.
