The School of Clinical Dentistry offers elective placements to students in clinical years of their dental course. Elective placements of up to 2 weeks are available from February to July. We are able to accept a maximum of two students at any one time and a maximum of eight places per year. Placements will allow you to shadow our students, generally observing clinical and laboratory sessions.

Application details

Applications to the Elective Programme will be accepted once yearly. All documentation must be received electronically by 5.00pm (GMT) on 1st October 2012 for electives in 2013.

Visas

Once accepted it is the responsibility of the overseas applicant to obtain the necessary visa for their elective attachment.

We recommend that you apply for your visa promptly as approval can take some time. Further information can be found at www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visasimmigration/visiting/student/
