Periodontology Dresden University of Technology

The part-time Master's degree programme in Periodontology offers in-depth, scientifically sound and practical training in the field of modern periodontology. In cooperation with the International Medical College (IMC), the programme combines current research, evidence-based therapeutic approaches and clinical excellence in an internationally oriented study concept.

The degree programme provides comprehensive knowledge in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of periodontal and peri-implant diseases. In addition to systematic periodontal therapy, the focus is on regenerative procedures, soft tissue management, the treatment of peri-implant diseases and interdisciplinary cooperation with related specialist areas. The close integration of theory and clinical practice enables students to directly apply the knowledge they have acquired in their everyday professional lives.

Thanks to the cooperation with the International Medical College (IMC), participants benefit from an international academic environment, highly qualified lecturers and a global network of experts. Graduates of the Master's degree course in Periodontology acquire a recognised academic qualification and at the same time develop the professional competence to carry out periodontological treatments independently and responsibly at the highest scientific and clinical level.

TU Dresden is one of eleven Universities of Excellence in Germany and is among the top universities in Europe: strong in research, it offers first-rate programmes with an overwhelming diversity, with close ties to culture, industry and society. As a modern comprehensive university with five schools (17 faculties), it offers a wide academic range of programmes. With around 29,000 students (20% international) TU Dresden is the largest technical university in Saxony. It enjoys an outstanding national and international reputation for research in natural and engineering sciences.

One of the most prominent characteristics of TU Dresden is its dynamic development — a process that has been going on for years and will continue into the future. As a "synergetic university", TU Dresden closely cooperates with external research institutions as well as cultural, industrial, and social organisations. Students also benefit from interdisciplinary collaboration with a focus on practical outcomes. Teaching and research follow the principle of involving both students and graduates in current research early on.

The capital of the Free State of Saxony, Dresden, stands majestically on the river Elbe. The fourth-largest city by area in Germany, Dresden is home not just to riverside palaces, Baroque churches and world-class museums but also to a proud history of science and technology. This finds continuity into the present with the DRESDEN-concept, an alliance of 41 research institutions in and around Dresden of which TU Dresden is a proud and prominent member. Whether you are interested in theatre, opera, cabaret or cinema, or if you enjoy a stroll through museums or a night out at the pub, Dresden has something to offer for everyone. Students also get an opportunity to be active in the many sports facilities in Dresden, including TU Dresden’s own, or in the surrounding nature of the Elbe landscape, the Elbe Sandstone Mountains (Elbsandsteingebirge) or the Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge). The surroundings of the city have plenty to offer, and the city is an excellent hub from where to explore Berlin, Prague, Leipzig and Wrocław.
