Tuition fees

DPU has established an innovative educational concept that builds on existing systems in Europe and is recognised throughout the EU. We are convinced that fair competition between study concepts drives improvements in dental medicine programmes, leading to enhanced dental healthcare – which, ultimately, benefits patients. Competition between educational institutions promotes elite performance, which is the bedrock of a democratic society.

Whether financed either entirely by the state as a common task for the good of society or through private contributions, university education cannot be provided free of charge. Students who pay performance-focused tuition fees can expect a course offering, study conditions and teaching staff of exceptional quality. In return, DPU expects a committed community of students seeking to be challenged. The tuition fees on the Diploma programme in Dental Medicine (Dr. med. dent.) at DPU are EUR 14,175 per semester, which corresponds to a total of EUR 170,100 over the standard study period of 12 semesters. Students must also cover the cost of necessary equipment (i.e. instruments, materials, etc.).
