2026 Strategy Day & Education Symposium

In the morning, we will revisit the strategic direction of the School, building on our three 2025 Strategic Priorities and ensuring alignment with the FMH and University strategies.

• Research

• Infrastructure & Environment

• Education

The afternoon Education Symposium will explore the theme:

Transforming Education: Advancing Oral Health For All, which aims to connect our education endeavours to the school’s mission.

Building on the success of the inaugural Sydney Dental School Education Symposium in 2025, this year we have another opportunity to come together as committed educators and researchers. We are delighted to offer diverse presentation formats and audience participation throughout the afternoon. We will also be joined by an academic guest speaker, whose presentation on future-oriented capabilities aims to prompt us to think about the outcomes and societal impact of our education and research.

Topics explored in the talks:

• Curriculum development and evaluation

• Identity

• Student engagement

• Assessment
