Distance-learning Postgraduate Certificate
Distance-learning Postgraduate Diploma
Distance-learning Msc degree
Rooted in applied research and practice, the MSc in Dental Public Health has been designed to enable students to acquire a strong grounding in the theory and application of dental public health.
The course has a formal taught component delivered by unit staff and visiting public health practitioners and researchers.
In addition to delivering core content the taught modules help to improve students’ competencies in critical thinking, argumentation and presentation of complex public health problems. Students also undertake placements in public health bodies in London, giving them exposure to the world of public health decision making.
The Dental Public Health unit is active in applied research in the community and the research module builds on this by giving students the opportunity to develop research planning, delivery and analysis capabilities in these settings.

Course programme
Structure
The MSc in Dental Public Health is available to study full-time for one year, or part-time for two years.
The programme will include timetabled seminars, personal study and supervised research.
All of our taught modules are considered core modules. Core modules must all be taken and their assignments passed in order to gain the award.
Full-timeUndertaking a masters programme is a serious commitment, with weekly contact hours being in addition to numerous hours of independent learning and research needed to progress at the required level. When coursework or examination deadlines are approaching independent learning hours may need to increase significantly.
Part-timePart-time study options often mean that the number of modules taken is reduced per semester, with the full modules required to complete the programme spread over two academic years. Teaching is generally done during the day and part-time students should contact the course convenor to get an idea of when these teaching hours are likely to take place. Timetables are likely to be finalised in September but you may be able to gain an expectation of what will be required.
Part time students are expected to attend 2 days of teaching per week (First year Wednesday and Thursday, second year Tuesday and Wednesday).
Core modulesWe have constructed a set of modules that we believe will prepare students to understand key aspects of dental public health, help them to apply this learning and be able to conduct research to help build our knowledge base.
There are 8 taught modules each bearing 15 credits. These are:
- Principles of Dental Public Health
- Oral Health Promotion: theory and practice
- Social and Behavioural Sciences
- Oral Epidemiology
- Principles of Healthcare Planning
- Evidence-Based Dentistry and Critical Appraisal
- Fundamentals of Research Methods
- Qualitative Research Methods
All students are also required to undertake a research project, which accounts for 60 credits. Research projects are conducted within the Dental Public Health unit’s research areas.
