Bachelor of Applied Science in Dental Hygiene (B.A.Sc. DH)

The Bachelor of Applied Science in Dental Hygiene (BAScDH) is a four-year applied degree, which prepares graduates to join the healthcare workforce as entry-level Dental Hygiene. The program pathways include a 4-year direct entry route including year 1 as a common year for all health science programs, as well as a temporary degree completion program ("bridging") for previous diploma graduates. Returning students can choose between a full-time or a part-time study. The BAScDH degree program provides students with the essential knowledge and technical competencies required to enter DH practice, and a broader knowledge of the healthcare field and its systems.
