Divya completed her dental training in India, before pursuing a master’s in Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics. It was during this time that she was introduced to the concept of digital dentistry, and her curiosity eventually led her to our Dental Technology course at the University of Sheffield.

“There were numerous reasons for choosing the University of Sheffield. One of the main reasons was its world ranking and the modules of the course. Everything I wanted to learn was included, and the course duration was also favourable for me. Sheffield is also full of different communities and is a very friendly place. So, I had trust in not being treated as a foreigner.


I have enjoyed every single bit of my course. Whether it was my lectures or my laboratory sessions, everything was fun.

MSc Dental Technology


"I also got full support from my tutors and course administrators and always had the freedom to express my ideas in research. Whenever I felt any difficulty during my dissertation, I was guided so well (something I can’t express in words). Also the university provides a personal tutor to all students which was very helpful for me.

“The course has laid down a very useful foundation for my career. It provided me with exposure to digital dentistry, and widened my area of expertise. I have gained detailed knowledge about research and developed an area of critical analysis which I was not familiar with before. I'm now working as a dentist in India, and working on establishing my own dental laboratory using the techniques I learnt whilst at Sheffield. Not only this, after finishing the course, I have become a member of the Digital Dental Society for which the course has laid a foundation for me to upscale my skills.

“As well as providing theoretical and practical knowledge, Sheffield also helps students in other aspects of their lives including granting funds to students facing financial crises. As an international student, I found it hard to manage my finances. I applied for financial support during my winter break and was granted funds within a week. This really touched me. Because of this, I would highly recommend the University of Sheffield.

“Choosing the course here at Sheffield will be a rewarding decision for prospective students. It is not just the reputation of the university which makes it more fruitful, but also the curriculum which aligned with my career goals and interests. Moreover, having experienced and knowledgeable faculty members, as well as high-tech laboratories with the latest equipment, can greatly enhance your learning experience and help you to excel.”
