Dental Society

 

The Dental Society at the National University of Singapore (NUS) was established in 1949 with the objectives of promoting extracurricular activities amongst its members and the advancement of dentistry-related studies.

The Society is managed by an Executive Committee (EXCO), whose student members are elected annually by the undergraduate dental population. The Freshman Orientation Committee and the local organising committee of the Asia-Pacific Dental Student Association (APDSA) Congress report directly to the EXCO.

Various activities and projects are organised by the Society. The PSU-MU-NUS games is an annual event where dental students from the Prince of Songkhla University (Thailand), the University of Malaya (Malaysia) and the National University of Singapore come together, in either one of the campuses, for a few days to interact and compete in various sports, like football and basketball.

The APDSA Congress is another annual event where dental students from Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, Australia and Cambodia congregate for a week.
