Its academic management is carried out by professors with long-standing expertise in dental education in an international environment. Its numerous teaching staff consists of lecturers of medical biological sciences and experienced dentists, with postgraduate studies, holders of dental specializations or expertise, and university professors. The training of the students takes place in the state-of-the-art laboratory and clinical facilities of the School of Dentistry, which in the last two years have doubled in size and functionality, while construction work has already begun on new building facilities that will add new laboratories and clinics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cyprus Agency of Quality Assurance and Accreditation in Higher Education (CYQAA) has re-certified the undergraduate Dentistry Program of European University Cyprus and simultaneously upgraded the Department of Dentistry to an autonomous School of Dentistry.
