Program
(Applicable only to targeted subjects for undergraduate students) | This course serves as an introductory bridge designed to facilitate a smooth transition for International Dental Course students into the specialized curriculum starting in the second year. By visiting various laboratories shortly after their arrival in Japan, students will be introduced to the overview of diverse dental disciplines and cutting-edge research. This early exposure helps them grasp the "big picture" of their future studies while assisting their adaptation to student life in Japan. Furthermore, by establishing connections with faculty members and researchers, students take a vital step toward acquiring the fundamental knowledge necessary for their professional coursework and future research activities. |
