Introduction
Goethe University Frankfurt, positioned among the top international research universities, offers a wide variety of academic programs, a diverse group of research institutes, and a focus on interdisciplinary approaches to solving complex problems.
The new Master’s degree program "Master in Dental Technology" (MDT) was introduced in April 2019 at the Goethe University Frankfurt am Main in order to offer advanced academic training in the field of dental technology. It is a 120 ECTS program with an international focus, which is conducted primarily in English.
The MDT is designed for Dental Technicians (Bachelor/ “Zahntechnikermeister) and dentists who want to acquire a highly advanced qualification in the field of dental technology. Within the program, students gain a deep understanding of assessment procedures, planning and scientific evaluation of complex treatments requiring dental restorations. The program focuses on the synergy potentials of different treatment regimes as well as digital optimization of existing therapy options, putting emphasis on scientific aspects. In addition, dental technicians will be trained to perform non-invasive treatment steps on patients. All training will be performed on phantom heads.
Upon successful completion of the Master’s course, graduates will be awarded the academic title “Master of Science (MSc.) in Dental Technology”

Find more information about the modules on our website: www.goethe-dental-school.de/mdt
Over a period of 3 years/ 6 semesters, you’ll be traveling 4 times to the Goethe University, each time for approximately 7-8 days. During each visit, you’ll have face-to-face seminars, lectures as well as hands-on training scheduled throughout the day.
Each student is able to access interactive teaching material via a website in order to monitor and support independent study during the preparation/ processing phase of material for/ from seminars and teaching units that take place at the University campus. Furthermore, all case documentation can be uploaded to the University server so that this can be assessed in order to ensure the quality of each student’s practical skills. The unique tutorship supports every student along the way to finish dental restoration cases and master thesis.
