The Bachelor of Dental Surgery prepares clinicians for dental practice in Guyana through the university's health sciences faculty, admitting both direct entrants from science-based study and students progressing from earlier health-related credentials. The principal route asks for a completed science-based degree carrying at least a 2.5 grade point average, with Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Environmental Science or Health Sciences all accepted as the underlying discipline.
Alternative routes recognise partial progress toward such a degree, allowing candidates who have passed designated first- or second-year science courses with a B average, or who hold a diploma or associate degree from the Faculty of Health Sciences covering medical-laboratory science, environmental health practice, pharmacy training or radiography work, to be considered. A Bachelor of Science in Nursing with a 2.5 grade point average from a recognised institution is likewise accepted, reflecting the breadth of health-science backgrounds the programme draws on before students begin dedicated dental training.
