The study of Dentistry is aimed at students with a clear commitment to help and serve others. It is for students who want to work in a hospital, health centre or private centre, research centre or the armed forces. Students with advanced vocational training in the health field.

Internships are a key component of your training. Acquiring experience after what you have learnt in your degree programme is the best way to enter the employment market. There are two types of internships: curricular—which are included in your study plan—and extracurricular—which you can do on a voluntary basis.

In order to complete curricular internships in companies, you must be enrolled in the specific subject of the curriculum that, if applicable, will specify the minimum credits ECTS that the student must have previously passed, as a necessary condition to do the internship. These internships are monitored by the company and the internship coordinator, and they are evaluated by final reports.

If you want to take your work experience to the next level before finishing your university education, you can pursue an extracurricular internship. It’s possible to do internships in any academic year, but keep in mind that they are a complement to your studies; therefore, the more knowledge you acquire throughout your studies, the more you will benefit from the internship.

With more than 600 hours of curricular clinical assistance practices, we provide you with a personal mentor that will allow you to strengthen the competencies and skills necessary for the practice of the profession without supervision. This comprehensive training will allow you to work independently after graduation.

UEV has more than 3,600 educational cooperation agreements with other centers.

Law 44/2003, of November 21, on the organization of the health professions regulates the authorization to pursue the profession of dentist. https://www.boe.es/buscar/pdf/2003/BOE-A-2003-21340-consolidado.pdf

The European University of Valencia has designed its Internal Quality Assurance System in accordance with the guidelines of the National Agency for Quality Assessment and Accreditation (ANECA), as a structural basis for guaranteeing the quality of the new official degrees, in line with the quality guidelines of the new official degrees, in accordance with the quality guidelines of the European Higher Education Area (EEES) and the Organic Law 4/2007, of April, which modifies the Organic Law of Universities 6/2001, of 21 December.

The Internal Quality Assurance System, which applies to all the University's training activities and all the processes that take place in it, was positively certified by ANECA's AUDIT programme in July 2022 (http://www.aneca.es/Programas-de-evaluacion/Evaluacion-institucional/AUDIT/Resultados).

The SAIC ensures that all the training activities carried out at the European University of Valencia respond effectively to the interests and needs of the users of each service, as well as the continuous improvement of all the activities that take place in it according to the PDCA continuous improvement cycle (Plan-Do-Check- Act/Adjust).
