Satisfaction of those receiving this training is one of the features to be into account in curriculum evaluation.

Methods: A cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted using the theoretical methods approaching the subject during the past 5 years and the survey empirical method applied to fourth and fifth years of the career studying in "Raúl González Sánchez" Odontology Faculty for information collection. Results: The 100 % of person polled considered as important the scientific research for the profession development, but only the 58.1 % of students refered to be trained to confront the research tasks. The features that more influenced in its research training are: student scientific meeting, scientific information search, the final works carrying out on subjects, the preparation for seminars and the work as assistant student.
