Research
Research is a key activity in the School of Clinical Dentistry. It informs our teaching and opens up new horizons in our clinical work.
One of the top Dental Schools in the UK
The Higher Education Funding Council carries out an assessment every five years and ranks Universities according to the quality of their research.
RAE 2008: in the recent research assessment exercise 70% of our research was graded as `world-leading´ or `internationally excellent´. We were ranked 4th among the UK dental schools and were one of the top performing departments in the University of Sheffield.
Research active across the board
All members of staff, including NHS colleagues, are encouraged to participate in one or more of our research groups, which has the benefit that they are able to join experienced researchers and share in ongoing research programmes.
The current range of research encompasses both laboratory and clinical projects. At present the School of Clinical Dentistry is organised in to four research groups, representing areas of international research strength.
