Dentistry
Prepare for a career in dentistry at CMU. In your first year, learn from professors who will be your supporters and will encourage you to grow within the world of dentistry. Develop a broad understanding of chemistry, human anatomy, and psychology through hands-on lab experience and in-depth classroom work. Tackling your first two years at CMU means that you will have an understanding not only of the physical body, but of human behavior through our common curriculum. This preparation in undergrad gives CMU students a leg up on their DAT, interviews, and applications into dentistry school.
Here is a sample of first-year courses that could act as a step on your journey towards a degree in Dentistry:
- CHEM-1010 Structure and Modelling in Chemistry
- CHEM-1020 Physical Chemistry
- BIOL-1361 Human Anatomy and Physiology I
- BIOL-1371 Human Anatomy and Physiology II
- PSYC-1010 Introduction to Psychology I: Foundations
- PSYC-1020 Introduction to Psychology II: Individuals and Interactions
Other electives from CMU or first year courses on Letter of Permission.
The Commons: What Sets CMU Apart
Please Note
- It is important that you inquire about admission and program requirements at the universities you are considering after CMU. You should work with the Advising office at CMU to construct a program of studies that will achieve your objectives. This is the responsibility of the student.
CMU is distinguished by its vision of the Commons. The Commons is the implementation of an interdisciplinary education. This approach creates graduates that write persuasively, speak confidently, and think critically. CMU is committed not only to giving students a credential, but to inviting them into a formative experience in which they exercise their thinking within a community of real-world engagement.
The Commons means that there are certain classes that all students get to take. These classes pull from core disciplines including Making, Theology, Science, Social Science, Indigenous Studies, Anabaptist Studies, and Ways of Knowing.
