Message from the President

Professor Takashi Sakurai, President, Kanagawa Dental University

We educate future dentists to contribute to the development of global medical communities.

Since it was founded 117 years ago, Kanagawa Dental University has aimed at cultivating “the spirit of love", which is our founding spirit, among students who aspire to become dentists.

In order to practice the spirit of love, it is essential that a medical professional be equipped with necessary ethics and attitude, disciplinary knowledge, and technological literacy.

Our unique five-term school year system at the 1st to 4th grade facilitate learning by enabling students to concentrate to a small number of subjects and to efficiently monitor the development of their learning.

We video-record all classes and incorporate information communication technology into our education so that students can learn any time to fit their needs.

The practical training at the new affiliated hospital, where the function of comprehensive medical care is emphasized, provides opportunities for the 5th and 6th grade students to learn requirements as dental professionals.

Through the entire course of the six-year learning, faculty members support students in every aspect of student life as homeroom teachers.

Our innovative educational system and facilities with cutting-edge technologies will promise to guide you through the exciting journey to become a dental professional.

We look forward to seeing you at our campus.

Professor Takashi Sakurai
President
Kanagawa Dental University
