The Dental Institute is situated on two of the campuses within the College at Guy's and King's Denmark Hill, with some facilities at the St Thomas' Campus. The Institute shares these sites with its associated NHS Hospital Trusts, the Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Trust, and King's Healthcare NHS Trust. There are excellent facilities on both main campuses. The combined library services offer a wide range of printed, electronic and multimedia material, including subscriptions to over 1,500 journals and a current stock of over 85,000 books. A networked medline service is available with dedicated postgraduate computers.
Information skills training programmes are provided.
All Masters students share a combined cross-disciplinary teaching course at the beginning of their programmes, and all postgraduate research students attend an introductory course on techniques, training and philosophy. There are excellent clinical facilities for clinical Masters programmes. The School has made considerable efforts in recent years to foster a sense of community amongst the postgraduate body and to provide ways in which scientific and practical information can be shared. There are regular meetings of the postgraduate students and all research degree students have the opportunity to participate in postgraduate workshops held throughout the College, as well as to participate in the annual postgraduate poster day, with awards for the best poster. Research facilities are excellent and a wide range of modern techniques, equipment and facilities are available for the progressive student.
