About AUDSS
  • Introduction to the AUDSS   ( 1 Article )

    INTRODUCTION TO THE ADELAIDE UNIVERSITY DENTAL STUDENTS' SOCIETY (AUDSS)
    The Adelaide University Dental Students Society (AUDSS) was founded in 1919 to represent and protect the interests of students studying Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) at the University of Adelaide. The AUDSS remains as the sole organisation in South Australia that represents dental students , and more recently Bachelor of Oral Health (BOH) students.

    We are a not-for-profit organisation that endeavours to connect, inform and support our future dentists, hygienists and therapists throughout their time at dental school.

We have students from every state and territory in Australia, and from over a dozen countries around the world. There are also a large number of dentists and academic and administrative staff among our members each year.

    President's Welcome

    Welcome to 2010 at the Adelaide Dental School!

    It is my privilege to invite you to a new year of the Adelaide University Dental Students' Society (AUDSS).

    As the student society of one of the nation's most distinguished and long-standing dental schools, we are proud to be an integral part of your student life. All our activities are tailored to enrich your time at the Dental School with experiences memorable, and assistance that is relevant to your journey as a dental and oral-health practitioner. We look forward to connecting you, our staff, the recent alumini and further, the nation's dental industry and profession.

    Our Social Events in 2010 promise to be larger and more creative than ever before, with a wide-ranging and inclusive calendar that has an event to suit every taste. We have various Community Aid projects that run on local, national and global levels to promote student leadership. The new AUDSS Academic and Professional Development Program beginning in March is designed to help you remain acute to recent advances and technologies, and areas of different dental specialties. In addition, we will be updating you regularly throughout the year with an extensive array of print and online publications, so be sure to check your emails regularly!

    We build on a legacy and a culture – one that is unique to the Adelaide Dental School, and defining for dental and oral-health students overall. We aim to remain increasingly reputable, trustworthy and creative in 2010, and to do this, we need your help. We have opened various ways for you to tell us your thoughts, including a new suggestion box in the AUDSS Basement Office, and an online forum on our new website, <www.audss.org > , scheduled to open in the first week of March. We will remain listening and acute to the many ideas and visions you have already begun to share with us, so please continue to let us know!

    Finally, I would like to wish all of you an unforgettable year. On behalf of the AUDSS, I look forward to sharing in the exciting, inspiring opportunities that await each of us.

     

    Best regards,

  • The 2010 Committee   ( 0 Articles )

    The 2010 Committee


    The AUDSS has grown enormously in recent years to expand both in size and scope.  The AUDSS now represents more number of students than ever before, and runs larger events.  We have also expanded in the scope of our activities by collaborating with numerous university and community affiliates.

    In order to answer to this rapid growth of the society, the 2010 AUDSS Committee has made significant changes to its structure to represent student interests more equally, and to reach each student more individually.  The traditional committee involving 10 or so final-year dental students elected by ticket has now expanded to include 12 Executive Committee members, who are supported by an additional 15 General Committee members from all oral-health and dental student cohorts.  Each Committee member boasts a wealth of skills and experience from having served in various different organisations and collectively, are committed to continuing the growth of the AUDSS.
