ABSTRACT
Background: to be part of the “Frank País García" assistant students movement requires a continuous teaching, researching and management upgrading of the students in the medical sciences.Objective: to design an upgrading course to strengthen the preparation of assistant students of the Dentistry career.
Methods: a developmental research was carried out at Villa Clara University of Medical Sciences Dentistry Faculty, from the school years 2011 to 2013. Methods were used at the theoretical level: analysis-synthesis and inductive-deductive; Empirical ones: documentary analysis and the survey in questionnaire form to know the upgrading felt needs of these students.
Results: the diagnosis made possible to identify that upgrading is not achieved by forming an integrated system, which includes exchanges with tutors, participation in some subject and department meetings, follow up to researching activities and a pedagogy course. Students identified needs related to scientific research, community educational activities and managerial functions, so a course with these topics was designed, which was assessed by specialists.
Conclusions: the students' upgrading needs were determined in order to carry out the activities planned for them in the guiding documents. The specialists consulted consider the course designed as pertinent, with adequate methodological structuring, positive scientific character and updating, and its feasibility to be applied.
