Students who want English-taught Dentistry in Hungary with a dental faculty and practical training in a university city.
The official Debrecen page lists the dental qualification as dr. med. dent., abbreviated as D.M.D.
Debrecen highlights hand skills, diagnostic procedures, radiographic interpretation and patient communication.
The degree is issued by a Hungarian university, but licensing still depends on the country where you want to practise.
Create the online application, select Dentistry and upload the requested documents before the intake deadline.
The official fee page lists a non-refundable application fee paid during the application process.
The entrance procedure fee covers the examination and interview process for medical and health-science programs.
Debrecen lists this as the deadline for students aiming to start the September 2026/2027 intake.
Debrecen lists English language proficiency as a requirement assessed at the compulsory entrance examination, so oral explanation practice matters.
The written part includes Biology and either Chemistry or Physics, with multiple-choice questions, definitions and calculations.
The official entrance examination page states that each written test takes 45 minutes.
The oral part covers Biology and the chosen second science, while English communication is also assessed.
Cell biology, genetics, physiology and human biology foundations support both the exam and first-year dental study.
Choose the second science early, then practise written problem-solving and oral explanations.
Practise explaining science topics clearly because the entrance route checks English proficiency.
