This study compared the dental curricula at dental schools in China and Japan. A survey was conducted in representative dental schools in China and Japan. It was found that, in China and Japan where dental schools recruit students directly from high schools, more attention is paid to introduction of early professional education. Most dental schools in Japan arrange dental subjects for their students from the first through the fourth years, while in China, only a few dental schools take this path although many of them are currently making changes. It was also discovered that, in both countries, an increasing number of dental schools assign a specific dental subject to the same period with its relevant bioscience or biomedical counterparts, which makes it possible for them to enhance each other reciprocally in a positive way for students and consequently help dental students master the related topics.
本研究比较了中国和日本的牙科学院的牙科课程。在中国和日本,牙科学院直接从高中招收学生,因此对早期职业教育的重视程度更高。日本的大多数牙科学院为学生安排了从第一学年到第四学年的牙科课程,而在中国,只有少数几所牙科学院采取这种方式,尽管许多牙科学院目前正在进行改革。此外,在这两个国家,越来越多的牙科学院将特定的牙科科目与相关的生物科学或生物医学科目安排在同一时期,这使得它们能够为学生相互促进,从而帮助牙科学生掌握相关主题。
