@article{oai:mdu.repo.nii.ac.jp:00000569, author = {鷹股, 哲也}, issue = {3}, journal = {松本歯学}, month = {Dec}, note = {application/pdf, In this paper, I will discuss the dental education system in the United Kingdom. In the undergraduate course, the courses were divided into two sections: two years pre-clinical course and three years clinical course. The undergraduate students can join one year Intercalated Science Course (ISC) before they are promoted to the clinical course. When they finished the ISC, the Intercalated Bachelor of Sciences (Intercalated BSc) was obtained. They can also join an exchange student system named "Socrates". After graduation dental school, the students must train for one more year at a vocational training center. The General Dental Council (GDC) proposes to change this training period to two years in the future. Students decide which course to take after graduation. The United Kingdom has two postgraduate dental education facilities: the Eastman Dental Institute Oral Health Care Sciences in London and the Leister Postgraduate Institute in Edinburgh. At the Eastman Dental Institute, they have two postgraduate courses, one is an Academic Degree Course and the other is a Clinical Degree Course. The students can obtain Master of Philosophy (M. Phil.) and/or Doctor of Philosophy (Ph. D.) through the Academic Degree Course. They can also obtain Master of Clinical Sciences (M. Clic. Sci.) and/or Master of Sciences (M. Sci.) through the Clinical Degree Course. The system for dental education in the United Kingdom is in the middle of reform, as is the system in Japan. The main point of dental education in the United Kingdom was to make dentists who can work for the good of patients in the local community.}, pages = {217--227}, title = {英國における歯学教育}, volume = {29}, year = {2003} }
