Strengthening Connections: New Buddy Program for our M.Sc. Periodontology

We are expanding our support system for students in the M.Sc. Periodontology with a new initiative designed to strengthen community and enhance academic success: the Buddy Program!

While the guidance provided by our Study Course Manager remains a central and highly valued part of the program, we want to offer our students an additional perspective as they navigate their academic and professional journey. The Buddy Program adds exactly that — a complementary layer of support.

Through this initiative, current students are paired with dedicated alumni who share their personal experiences, insights, and lessons learned.

In this way, the Buddy Program strengthens the connection between generations of Paroma graduates and helps cultivate a supportive, collaborative community where students feel empowered, informed, and truly connected.

For alumni, the program offers a meaningful way to stay engaged with the student body and contribute to the development of future colleagues. For new students, it provides authentic insights into the unique paths our graduates have taken — from academic challenges to professional milestones.

Students joining the program this September will be able to benefit from the Buddy Program right from the start. Applications via RWTHonline are open until July 15.

A strong support system, a connected community, and real-world insights — the Buddy Program brings all of this together for our future Periodontology specialists.

Those who would like to learn more about the part-time Master’s Degree Program beforehand can register for the upcoming Info Webinar on June 24 from 16:00-17:00h CEST through our website!
