Themed “The Pulse of Vitality and Dynamism in Dental Education,” the festival energized the TUMS campus with a rich program that brought together students, faculty, and staff in a joyful exploration of learning beyond traditional boundaries.

From spirited scientific competitions and showcases of innovative educational projects to stand-up comedy and artistic performances, the event highlighted how the intersection of knowledge and creativity can inspire a dynamic learning environment.

Dr. Bahma Seraj, Dean of TUMS School of Dentistry, underscored the deeper purpose of education in his opening remarks. He emphasized that true education extends far beyond classrooms and laboratories — it builds bridges between generations, fosters empathy, and ignites hope for the future.

Echoing this vision, Dr. Farshad Allameh and Dr. Sara Pourshahidi spoke passionately about the critical roles of student motivation, collaborative learning, and designing educational experiences that balance rigor with heart.

The festival’s atmosphere was marked by infectious enthusiasm, underscoring the power of student-led initiatives in nurturing a lively academic community. Organizers and participants alike embraced the event not merely as a celebration, but as a movement dedicated to keeping education vibrant, inclusive, and engaging.

The DenTUMS Festival 2025 stood as a testament to TUMS’s commitment to fostering an academic culture where knowledge flows freely, voices are amplified, and meaningful connections flourish.

As the campus returns to its routine, the spirit of DenTUMS continues to inspire, reminding all that education truly thrives where joy and passion are present.
