Students may earn a Master of Science (MS) degree in Oral and Craniofacial Sciences within one of two research concentrations: Craniofacial and Dental Genetics and Craniofacial Tissue Regeneration. Students will be exposed to both concentrations in the program curriculum, including three courses with DMD students, and work with faculty in the Department of Oral and Craniofacial Sciences on research in one of these concentrations. The MS program requires two years to complete, but no more than four years. Early completion may be considered for students with exceptional progress in their thesis that have completed their coursework. The MS Program is distinct from the Ph.D. Program. MS students may apply to be accepted for the Ph.D. The program once they are accepted into the MS program. If the student is accepted into the Ph.D. program later, courses taken toward the MS will satisfy doctoral degree credit and residency requirements.

Since 1896 the School of Dental Medicine has been educating students to take their places among the best dental practitioners, researchers, and educators in our region, across the country, and even around the world. Our accomplishments reflect the dedication and success of each member of the School of Dental Medicine family.

Our researchers expand the horizons of knowledge and are internationally renowned for their groundbreaking developments in the areas of craniofacial genetics and craniofacial regeneration. We identify genes that contribute to complex human phenotypes and are using tissue engineering to heal wounds and restore function and appearance to defects of the face and skull.
