Basic Oral Health Engineering
The department of Basic Oral Health Engineering aims to create a scientific foundation for the clinical applications based on interdisciplinary research between engineering and biology and/or interface studies between basic and clinical sciences. We believe that these research activities, which are focused on the region of the oral cavity, can contribute to attaining healthy and happy living conditions. We have the responsibility to train our students to be medical personnel who are eager to contribute to people's happiness through a broad range of educational courses from basic level courses to professional level courses, which integrate areas of study such as the structure and function of the human body, stomatognathic region, pharmacology and the research process.
