Three years postgraduate programme in orthodontics: final report Erasmus project.
A new curriculum with a common content of 75%, leaving 25% for electives has been developed for a three year programme for specialty education in Orthodontics. The result is a joint effort of the original eight participants and invited professors from Italy and Eire as well as from five non-EC countries (Austria, Finland, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland). Unaminity among the 15 participants was reached on all essential matters and on the contents of the final report. The main objective of the programme has been defined and the different courses have been formulated in terms of goals to be accomplished in three levels of comprehension and by the minimal hours students must devote to each subject. Furthermore, procedures that should be mastered have been specified.
