The Universitat Internacional de Catalunya (UIC) seeks to facilitate the incorporation and adaptation of all new students by means of a welcoming session organised by the University Master’s Degree in Research in Dentistry, the information on which is sent by letter or by e-mail, in a personalised way.

During the welcoming session, the new students will receive a general description of the UIC, and a representative from some Services, shall offer a brief explanation about the workings of the Service and the type of information and activities that students will find there. The session will be followed by an academic presentation of the Master’s programme by the actual Programme Management, the idea being one of providing an acquaintance with the facilities and services of the Faculty and the Department.
 

Materials for the newly-accessed students:

1. UIC folders. The folders will contain the timetables of the  University Master’s Degree in Research in Dentistry, the UIC Diary for the academic year starting then and a Welcome Pack.
2. Students will be sent to the e-mail address they provided when enrolling, their username and password to access their personal page. An UIC e-mail account will automatically be generated too.
3. Student card. The Universitat Internacional de Catalunya’s student card identifies its holder as a member of the UIC university community, certifies the condition of beneficiary of the university services, premises and facilities, and allows the use, in an automated way, of the library loan services from the Universitat Internacional de Catalunya’s library network.

The means by which the said documentation and information is provided to the students of the Master’s degree can vary in the format according to existing resources at the time.

Dental educators and researchers, professionals in dental companies—especially those involved in the development of dental products and services.

The career opportunities for dentists trained in basic research integrated with clinical practice include:

• Doctoral Studies: Pursuing a PhD and completing a doctoral thesis.
• Academic Career: Joining the faculty at both public and private universities.

Candidates who are in their final year of studies must provide the academic transcript of grades updated to the date of registration.

Once all the documentation has been received and checked for validity, the registration fee of €90** must be paid and the receipt of payment must be sent to the following e-mail address: infodonto@uic.es ( alumni of UIC Barcelona are exempt from this payment), (**non-refundable for administration costs).

The last step is the personal interview with the directors/coordinators of the Clinical Residency in which the following will be assessed: academic record, personal profile, motivations and aptitudes. The interviews will be held face-to-face on dates that will be confirmed once the previous steps of the process have been completed.

The world of dental prosthetics is currently undergoing a revolution thanks to the incorporation of digital systems. The evolution of adhesion techniques and the use of new materials has seen this aspect of dentistry evolve even faster.

The UIC's clinical residency programme in prosthetics is based on the need for dentists to constantly stay up to date on the latest knowledge required for dental prosthetics. The course programme will be offered through digital and traditional methods, focusing on new concepts in minimally invasive dentistry, such as restorative methods based on adhesion or the use of new materials that require less tooth reduction, in addition to covering both fixed and removable traditional prosthetics, which are useful in everyday practice.

Clinical sessions will be held to discuss patient cases that will later be treated in the clinic by students, under the tutelage and with support from encouraging professors who are trained in the latest techniques. There will also be theory seminars, which will start by covering basic and traditional concepts related to fixed tooth-supported prosthetics and removable prosthetics. Later, the theory sessions will advance towards more modern concepts including digital technology, adhesive restoration and new materials and techniques used to produce more modern dental prostheses.
