Malmö University offers two international master's programmes in Dental Science. With these programmes, dental professionals from around the world are given the opportunity to pursue advanced studies at the Faculty of Odontology, leading to a master's degree.

Two-year Master's Programme

Our two-year master's programme aims to provide students with advanced knowledge and skills in dentistry, with a particular focus on a specific subfield. The programme also includes basic research training and experience in independently planning and conducting a research project under the guidance of an experienced researcher. Upon graduation, students will be able to

  • review scientific literature
  • participate in the planning and execution of research and development within the profession
  • serve as a resource in their chosen clinical subfield

The master's degree also qualifies students for further research studies, such as doctoral (PhD) studies. The programme is only offered as commissioned education.

Three-year Clinical Master's Programme

The three-year clinical master's programme is designed to train students to become competent professionals in their field. This requires a deep understanding of general biological and scientific principles. Critical, evidence-based reasoning is achieved through participation in and leadership of seminars, as well as through studying related literature in the subject. Clinical skills are honed through the treatment of a variety of patients.
