College of Dental Medicine Campaign Priorities

POTENTIAL IS REALIZED HERE NSU College of Dental Medicine has the distinction of being the first private dental college established in Florida, and the first in the United States established in partnership with a college of osteopathic medicine. Our predoctoral students and postdoctoral residents represent the best of a strong applicant pool and are committed to becoming outstanding clinicians and leaders in their communities. NSU College of Dental Medicine’s world-class faculty members are committed to the success of our students. They teach, conduct research, and lecture, contributing to the knowledge base that serves as the foundation for clinical dentistry. Innovation is ongoing as we continually improve our competency-based curricula. By 2020, NSU’s College of Dental Medicine will serve as a vital resource to the people of Florida and throughout the country, changing lives by elevating the practice of dental medicine through highly educated and socially conscious dentists and dental specialists, advancing the science base through research, and by continually expanding the scope and impact of its community-based outreach initiatives.
