The PhD training in Forensic Odontology aims I) to develop research skills and critical thinking among forensic experts, and II) to promote evidence-based practices in the field of forensic odontology. The PhD candidates enrolled in this program will experience state-of-the-art research in Forensic Odontology, and will develop tailor-made tools applicable to the forensic routine. Our academic environment enables direct bridge with medicolegal institutions worldwide, so the students can understand the country-specific needs and challenges of their forensic routine. Planning projects, testing methods, interpreting and performing statistical analyses, and writing scientific materials (articles and book chapters) are some of the activities included in the PhD program. On-campus and on-distance interaction is expected between the candidates and the supervisor. Teaching and supervising skills are important parts of our PhD training. By the end of the course, the candidates who successfully defended their theses will be able to promote training and coordinate future generations of forensic odontologists. International guidelines and standards promoted by Associations, Societies and other administrative entities dedicated to the forensic fields, especially forensic dentistry, will be followed as the core content of our research practice. Before proposing projects, the candidates must understand what current practices are advocated per jurisdiction and what are the current limitations of Forensic Odontology that require improvement towards field development. To this end, background in Forensic Odontology (MSc) is necessary prior to the doctoral degree.
