About<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Swiss Dental Students Association (SDSA) is the national association of dental students from the universities of Basel, Bern, Geneva, and Zurich. We provide a platform where students from different campuses can exchange ideas, learn from one another, and actively contribute to the further development of dental education.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

What we actually do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At the heart of our work are projects and initiatives that go beyond the regular curriculum. These include national events such as the Swiss Dental Students Convention (SDSC), workshops with partners from the dental practice and industry sectors, and exchange programs between universities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, we represent the students' perspective in our dialogue with universities, professional associations, and other stakeholders in the healthcare sector.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
