School of Dental Medicine Post-Baccalaureate Program
This program is a structured, yearlong curriculum with a full academic load in the sciences. This concentration in the sciences not only allows the student to improve his or her credentials, but it also has the potential to ease the academic stress of the first year of the dental curriculum. This program is designed to help address the shortage of ethnically underrepresented professionals practicing dentistry in the State of Colorado and the nation. Currently, those underrepresented populations are Hispanic, American Indian/Native American, and African American health professionals.
