LAHORE:The University of Health Sciences (UHS) Board of Studies in Dentistry held its 49th meeting on Thursday, presided over by Vice Chancellor Prof Ahsan Waheed Rathore.
The board approved a new integrated curriculum set to be implemented in Punjab’s dental colleges starting from the 2024-25 academic session, transitioning the Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) programme from four years to a five-year degree. In a notable decision, the board reached a consensus that both public and private dental colleges would not charge fees for the fifth year, which will be designated as a clerkship year. This change aligns with international standards, ensuring that students complete an additional year focusing on practical experience.
