Participation in international mobility programmes in the Bachelor's Degree in Dentistry represents a highly valuable opportunity for the comprehensive training of the future professional.
An academic stay abroad allows students to learn about different models of oral health care, clinical protocols and preventive and therapeutic approaches applied in other health systems.
This experience favours the development of clinical and transversal skills, such as adapting to new care environments, working in multicultural teams and communicating with patients from different socio-cultural contexts.
Mobility also contributes to improving the mastery of other languages, reinforces autonomy and problem-solving skills, and provides a global vision of dental practice that increases competitiveness and employability in an increasingly internationalised professional environment.
