Master of Science - Neuroscience

Merging biological, cognitive, and computational neurosciences, this interdisciplinary program provides the broad academic foundation and diverse research experiences students need to study and contribute to the scientific understanding of the brain and spinal cord function.

The program addresses all aspects of the highly integrated field, including the study of the nervous system biology, the cognitive and behavioral processes, and the applications of mathematics and computer science to understand and model neurological function.

As a student in the program, students will focus their degree work in an area of the field that interests them and best prepares them for their career and research goals. Areas of specialization include neurobiology, cognitive neuroscience, and computational neuroscience.

The program is offered in collaboration with a nearby partner university, giving students access to faculty expertise, research facilities, and resources at both institutions.
