8 UP dental students are embarking on 23 March for the first ever exchange program to Indonesia’s largest and most prestigious dental school at the University of Indonesia. The team at University of Indonesia has prepared a warm welcome for our students, followed by a day of sightseeing, a campus tour, orientation and social activities with the Indonesian students. During the week the students will rotate around the various departments and also attend lectures and seminars (including on bone research and forensic dentistry). The UP students will take part in a hands-on activity in the oral surgery SIM lab, where they will learn how to do inter-maxillary fixation to stabilize jaw fractures. Each day the students will be expected to write a daily reflection in their notebooks. We hope that our relationship with University of Indonesia will be a fruitful and long-lasting one.
