PhD in School of Clinical Dentistry

University of Sheffield

The School’s vision is to deliver high quality teaching, to be internationally excellent or world leading in research, and with the CCDH and outreach practices, to provide and develop a first class, evidence based and quality assured clinical service. Research at School of Clinical Dentistry, Sheffield, takes place in a highly multidisciplinary environment, unique in placing high-quality fundamental and applied science at the interface of a busy clinical service (Charles Clifford Dental Hospital) with an academic mix of biomedical, engineering and social scientists that cover a broad range of themes which underpins our teaching, strengthens our knowledge base and informs the advancement of clinical excellence. The school contains three overlapping research groups: BHT, iBIO, PAPOR, who all sit within four overarching themes that work within the framework of discovery and application of novel research for human benefit. Our dedicated team of research active academics all engage in high-quality teaching on BDS, BMedSci, MSc, DClinDent and Dental Hygiene & Therapy courses while also giving these students the opportunity to join the research community as part of research projects, and also hosting a vibrant cohort of Postgraduate Researchers in dedicated facilities.
