Program Description
Computational neuroscience links the information processing features of the brain and nervous system with the information processing systems of computer hardware and software.
WSU's computational neuroscience program is an interdisciplinary offering that allows students to study both neurobiology and computer science. The program emphasizes the organism and the machine as information processing entities. The program is designed to allow students to acquire a breadth of knowledge in computational subjects (math, bioengineering, computer science, and electrical engineering), or to focus on either software design (computer science) or hardware aspects of computation (computer engineering).
Supplemental Pre-Professional tracks are available for students interested in pursuing further professional education. If there is interest in one of these tracks in addition to the degree, please let the recruiter know. The options are:
- Pre-Dentistry
- Pre-Law
- Pre-Medicine
- Pre-Nutrition & Exercise Physiology
- Pre-Occupational Therapy
- Pre-Optometry
- Pre-Pharmacy
- Pre-Physical Therapy
- Pre-Physician Assistant
- Pre-Speech & Hearing Sciences
- Pre-Veterinary Medicine
