According to a statement from the Faculty of Dental Medicine at the University of Lisbon, Inês Guerra began studying the Advanced Standing Programme at the University of Illinois, Chicago, USA in January 2021, a course that allows the practice of the profession in that country. In May of this year she obtained her DMD degree and was honoured as the best student in her course.
Consequently, she has received two different awards, scholarships for academic excellence, and was selected to join Omicron Kappa Upsilon, an honorary American society, founded in 1914, that operates in the field of dentistry.
“As a result of her outstanding academic performance, she was recently admitted onto the 2-year, government-funded, joint specialisation programme in Paediatric Dentistry& Master of Oral Sciences at the same university”, read the statement.
“The Faculty of Dental Medicine of the University of Lisbon welcomes the professional and academic success of this alumni, especially as it takes place in a country characterised by the excellence of its university institutions and wishes her continued professional and academic success”.
