In 2022, we launched the fully upgraded Lasers in Dentistry Master’s program at Sigmund Freud Private University (SFU) in Vienna, marking a new era in postgraduate dental education. Since then, the program has welcomed professionals from around the world who are looking to advance their clinical skills, deepen their knowledge, and bring cutting-edge laser technology into their dental practices. Now, we’re taking another strategic step forward, one that enhances the program’s global visibility and makes it even more powerful in your professional journey.
We are proud to announce that the program will now with the new batch of 2025 carry the internationally recognized title of Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Lasers in Dentistry. This change brings added clarity and credibility for our graduates worldwide and reflects the full academic and clinical depth of our curriculum.
Our new intake launches 22. September 2025, and yes, registration is already open.
From Master Professional to Master of Science (M.Sc.)
When we first unveiled the newly upgraded version of the program, we introduced it under the title Master Professional Lasers in Dentistry. The intent was clear: signal this as a postgraduate professional degree, not to be confused with a consecutive M.Sc. aimed at undergraduate students or holders of a B.Sc.
That change worked well inside Europe, but as we connected with professionals across the globe, one thing became clear: the Master of Science (M.Sc.) title carries more international recognition. Whether you’re applying for positions, licenses, or credentials outside the EU, “M.Sc.” is universally understood.
So, we listened, we adapted, and we’re excited to announce: our upgraded program will now again grant the degree of Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Lasers in Dentistry.
What Stays the Same: All the Upgrades We Developed
Let’s be clear: the curriculum, quality, and depth of the program remain exactly as before.
Here’s what you get with the new M.Sc.:
- 120 ECTS credit points: twice the credit points of the legacy version offered up to 2020, increasing its international recognition and academic value, and twice the academic weight of most other dental laser master programs worldwide!
- Fully practice-integrated: time spent treating patients in your own practice with lasers counts toward your study progress.
- Flexible format for working professionals: modules grouped into compact teaching blocks to reduce travel, with additional virtual learning to cut time away from your clinic.
- Cutting-edge clinical training: hands-on sessions with a range of top-tier dental laser systems at our modern Vienna facilities.
- Boot camp in Cairo: gain intensive clinical laser experience through our partner MIU in Egypt, with full patient treatments under expert guidance.
- Future-focused curriculum: from periimplantitis and pediatric laser dentistry to facial aesthetics, root canal innovations, and photobiomodulation, a field with great potential and non-invasive treatments.
- Smart structure: 19 streamlined modules, around 52 days on-site in Vienna, and more time allocated for both your master thesis and exams.
We Stand by the Vision
The “Master Professional” label reflected our core values: clarity, practicality, and alignment with real-world dental careers. But we also recognize the importance of global understanding and credential recognition. This change to Master of Science simply makes it easier for you, our students and alumni, to leverage your degree anywhere in the world.
So, whether you knew us as Master Professional or discover us now as M.Sc., the mission is unchanged: Deliver the world’s leading postgraduate program in Laser Dentistry.
