Abstract:
Here we introduced the teaching objectives, course contents and examination methods of oral biology in North America, Europe, Australia, Japan, Korea and other countries, compared the differences of oral biology courses among these schools, domestic and abroad, and we further analyzed the deep backgrounds or reasons of these differences. In brief, the oral biology education abroad is mainly for the graduate students, and the teaching target is improving the research ability of the students, in addition, the course contents varies a lot from school to school. Whereas in China, the teaching objects include both undergraduates and graduate students, the course aims to popularize the basic scientific knowledge of oral biology, and the course contents mostly depends on the uniform text books. The deep reasons of course differences might be related to different education systems and teaching targets. Our data will be helpful for the further improvement and future development of our domestic oral biology education.
