Director, Dental Post-Baccalaureate Program

San Francisco State University/UOP School of Dentistry

The SFSU/University of the Pacific Post-Baccalaureate Program is designed to address both disparities in access to care and the lack of minority representation in the dental professions. The Program has two goals: to increase the number of students from disadvantaged backgrounds gaining acceptance into a US dental school within one year after completion of the program; and to select students who desire to work in underserved areas of California.

The program, which starts in June, requires a full-time commitment from the student. The program includes the following elements: DAT review, academic skills enhancement, academic course work, clinical clerkships/community involvement, a PowerPoint presentation to the faculty, application support, interview skills support, selection of schools, and advocacy.

Dr. Biana Roykh was the Co-Director and subsequently the Director of this program until August of 2013. Today, the program continues its mission under new leadership.

Upon graduating from dental school, Dr. Roykh worked for four years serving a socio-economically disadvantaged population of San Francisco.

Today, she continues to show her commitment to diversity and outreach in her new role at UCSF.
