COSTAATT dental therapy students want to graduate

The students pursued their Bachelor of Science in Dental Therapy at the COSTAATT’s Port-of-Spain Campus.

One of the students, who asked that her name not be used, told Newsday that the students were supposed to graduate in 2016 last year, and are still awaiting their BSc in Dental Therapy certificates.

“Up to last February we were told that all the equipment for the practicum was not ordered, when they told us they had already ordered the equipment.” She continued, “We have had meetings with the head of the department and the president to address the issue and, to date, students have not been told what is going to take place.” She indicated that their first practicum was scheduled for February 2012, but was postponed until further notice.
