The Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry of USC offers a Doctorate of Philosophy (PhD) degree in craniofacial biology. The program prepares students for careers in academic environments as clinical scholars or as members of multidisciplinary teams of health professionals in academic research centers. In addition, a Graduate Certificate in Craniofacial Biology is offered. The Certificate in Craniofacial Biology is intended to provide dentists in post-graduate dental education with experience in graduate education and insight into the requirements to complete a graduate degree. This will provide the students with additional information relative to selecting academic careers. All graduate certificate students must have a dental degree and have been admitted to a postgraduate dental education program sponsored by Ostrow.
