Structure Curriculum
The Master's program in Medical Sciences is based on theoretical, methodological, and didactic-pedagogical disciplines that are interconnected and provide the necessary support for the training of teachers and researchers, aiming at the construction of critical and scientific thinking, with the strengthening of projects and lines of research that contribute to this end. The dissertation work for the completion of the course is developed according to the Areas of Concentration.
The curriculum structure of the Master's in Medical Sciences is based on three pillars of training: (1) technical training, according to the Program's Area of Concentration; (2) scientific training; and (3) teacher training.
This strategy aims to meet the program's objectives in training highly qualified professionals for advanced clinical, teaching, and scientific practice, capable of transformative actions in society through teaching, the development of research lines, and the planning and resolution of public policies appropriate to social demands.
The disciplines that comprise the Master's Degree in Medical Sciences were designed for close integration between the curricular structure of the areas of concentration and the strengthening of research lines.
Master's degree in dentistry
In the Master's program, the theoretical, methodological, and didactic-pedagogical foundation courses, common to all areas of concentration, are mandatory and aim to build critical thinking, didactic-pedagogical training for the incoming student, as well as scientific training. These courses are: Biostatistics, Biosafety and Medical Emergencies, Scientific Research Methodology, Higher Education Teaching Methodology, Experimental and Human Bioethics, Teaching Internship I, and Health Policies. For technical training, each area of concentration in the program has its specific and mandatory courses.
Academic doctorate in dentistry
The doctoral program differs from the master's program by enabling in-depth scientific and critical knowledge, aiming to train researchers with the autonomy to carry out their activities in any institution. As with the master's program, there are mandatory courses common to all areas of concentration: Fundamentals of Cell Biology, Scientific Research Methodology II, Tissue Response, Oral Diagnosis, Finite Elements, Oral Microbiology, Biostatistics II, Biomaterials and Dental Materials, Immunopharmacology, Introduction to Lasers, Systematic Review, Clinical Seminars, and Research Seminars. For technical training, each area of concentration within the program has its own specific and mandatory courses.
