Who are we?
We are the Texas A&M University College of Dentistry chapter of the American Student Dental Association - formerly known as Baylor ASDA.
"The American Student Dental Association is a national student-run organization that protects and advances the rights, interests, and welfare of students pursuing careers in dentistry. It introduces students to lifelong involvement in organized dentistry and provides services, information, education, representation and advocacy." -- Mission Statement
We, at Texas A&M College of Dentistry ASDA, strive to communicate all of these principles to our members and inspire further growth and awareness by organizing and hosting educational events such as our annual Brush Week, monthly lunch and learns, and other networking events.
Our mission is to actively engage our students with the local, state, and national leaders in the dental community and get them involved and interested in the current events and issues surrounding and affecting dental students and the profession as a whole today.
All Texas A&M College of Dentistry students are auto-enrolled in ASDA.
If you would like to get more involved with TAMCD ASDA, make sure to check out the homepage or our calendar for any upcoming events and conferences.
