It is the policy of the Center for Advanced Dental Education to require that students are not permitted to
work outside CADE in dentistry without permission.
Purpose:
Given the rigors of the graduate programs, the Program Directors will determine if and when an individual
student may employment in dentistry outside of CADE.
Guidelines:
Outside employment and its related responsibilities and problems can demand a great deal of attention and
time. As a result, outside employment can produce a serious distraction contrary to the best interests of
the academic, clinical, and research responsibilities of the graduate student. The demands of each graduate
program in all of these areas are so great that any distraction must be avoided. With this thought in mind,
plus past experience, residents are asked to carefully read the attached policy relative to outside
employment, sign an agreement, and retum it to the Executive Director of the Center Advanced Dental
Education within a specified time.
