PhD in Oral Biology

5 Years On Campus Phd Program

Rutgers University Newark

Program Overview

The PhD program offer is granted by GSBS and is specifically designed to address the issues related to the shortage of research faculty in dental sciences. The key reason for this shortage results form a significant number of open, unfilled positions in the basic sciences coupled with an existing science faculty that is aging and will retire shortly, thereby creating an even more urgent need. The program addresses this shortage by providing research trained individuals who will be in a position to enrich the educational experience of dental students, strengthen the stature of dentistry within the university and provide building blocks for the future that can change the way in which dentistry is practiced. The PhD program with an emphasis in Oral Biology is the only program in the state of New Jersey that offers a PhD degree granted by GSBS with an emphasis on dental research.
