The Dentistry Faculties constitute separate departments of the Medical Faculties of Charles University (located in Hradec Kralove of Prague), COMENIUS of Bratislava and SAFARIK of KOSICE. Each one operates with its own independent educational program.
The normal studies last six (6) years divided in twelve (12) semesters. Each academic year begins in the mid of September and is completed with the August exams of the next year. Thus, the winter semester begins approx. on September 17th and is completed on December 22nd. After Christmas Holidays, the winter exams take place, starting from January 3rd and finishing approx. on the 10th of February.
During Christmas Holidays, students of the Dentistry Faculties mentioned above are allowed to return to Greece and stay with their parents and their relatives or friends until the date they have applied for the first course of the winter exams. All students are allowed to set the desired day of the examination for each course online from their own computer. Each student is free to give the necessary exams whenever he/she feels ready to pass the specific procedure. The test for each course can be given up to three times within the academic year. In case any course is transferred to the next year, the corresponding test can be given up to another two times. Normally, a writing test takes place for each course followed by an oral examination. The writing test is of a multiple-choice type, while the oral one includes a presentation procedure of answering to 3 or 5 questions.
The summer semester begins on February 10th, approx., and lasts until May 20th. Upon completion of the summer semester, the summer exams take place, lasting until July 7th or 10th. Graduates from the Dentistry Faculty obtain the MDDr-degree (Medical Dental Doctor) as Doctors of Dentistry.
EMFASIS FOUNDATION CENTER sets the base of success for candidates of Dentistry conducting during summertime (from July 20th to August 20th) a special preparation program with courses of Biology and Chemistry terminology in English. The lessons take place in our facilities in Thessaloniki and are taught by university professors with MASTER or PhD diplomas.
For candidates who cannot be present in Thessaloniki during the specific period, there is a possibility to attend the lectures mentioned above online, by means of a special software (e-LEARNING PROGRAM), which comprises the whole content of both courses (BIOLOGY & CHEMISTRY), to give the necessary tests and communicate with the relevant professors to solve any problem they may face. In addition, a series of special booklets is sent to all the candidates, including 500 questions in CHEMISTRY and another 500 questions of BIOLOGY of a multiple-choice type, which, together with the attendance of the e-LEARNING, guarantee their success in the entrance exams.
So far, all students of the EMFASIS FOUNDATION CENTER have a 100% success in the entrance exams.
