About the course

A five-year official Spanish degree in Dentistry (300 ECTS) taught in English at UCAM’s Murcia campus, with 60 places. Students work in teams on clinical cases and get plenty of hands-on clinical practice with real patients.

Because the patients are local, the practicals are carried out in Spanish. UCAM includes Spanish language subjects in first and second year (Language I and II) so that you reach B2 level before the clinical years start.
