[Dental curriculum in Nijmegen].
The dental curriculum at the University of Nijmegen is based on what the dentist should know and be able to do after his graduation. The programme is divided up into cognitive, behavioural and motoric modules. These modules are vertically connected through subsequent course years by thematically related lines. For every module, the general objectives and general contents have been formulated. Moreover, all subcomponents have been specified as instructional objectives. Half of the study hours is reserved for practical dentistry, by means of preclinically laboratory courses or patient treatment. The curriculum is based on a scientific approach of dentistry and emphasis is placed on patient related instructional situations.
