Doctor of Philosophy in Neuroscience
Program Overview
Become an independent researcher and a leader in neuroscience. Through coursework and experiential learning, you'll explore new treatments for neurodegenerative diseases, better understanding how the nervous system responds to illness and injury. You'll be engaged in critical research from day one.
A Doctorate degree in neuroscience trains you to do critical research on the brain and nervous system. You'll find answers to questions that will help people live mentally and physically healthier lives.
Earning a Doctorate degree in neuroscience
We train students who want to pursue applied research. Our Doctorate degree in neuroscience program follows a mentorship model. From start to finish, you’ll work closely alongside a faculty member whose research interests match your own. In fact, we encourage you to contact program faculty members in your area of interest before submitting your application.
We embrace the interdisciplinary nature of neuroscience, drawing faculty from the departments of psychology, biology, health sciences and medicine.
In your first two years, you’ll complete foundational coursework and design a research project with your faculty mentor. After a successful defense of your proposed research, you'll work on completing a research plan, writing a scientific paper and defending your dissertation work.
