Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and Cognitive Science with Emphasis in Neurobiology

Program Overview

Learn how an undergraduate Neurobiology emphasis can prepare you for medical school, a graduate degree, research fields or a career in biotechnology. Neurobiology is the study of the cellular and molecular level of the nervous system as well as its network functioning and impact on behavior. Students seeking a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and Cognitive Science with a Neurobiology emphasis gain a broad base of interdisciplinary study. Their solid foundation in chemistry, biology, physics and mathematics is then applied to studies in genetics, human and animal behavior and development, mind modeling, neural networking and neural data analysis. Undergraduates can use the neurobiology focus as a stepping-stone to medical school, research ventures or careers in a variety of fields.

Learning Outcomes

Core knowledge-specific content; Students will develop a firm understanding of the theories, fundamental principles and concepts, and technologies of brain organization and function from both neuroscience and cognitive science perspectives.
Scientific inquiry; Students will develop the capacity to think critically and with cognitive flexibility about complex problems involving the brain and mind, and will develop the capacity to skillfully communicate concepts and research results to professionals and to the public.
Ethics and Professionalism; Students will apply ethical and professional standards to their evaluation of brain and mind-related research and technical development in the context of their own work and in the context of issues in the larger societal community.

PGWP

Optional Practical Training or OPT is a period during which students, who have completed their degrees in the USA, are permitted to work for one year on a student visa by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). OPT allows students to work for up to 3 years and develop real-world skills to survive in the competitive jobs market.

It is temporary employment for a period of 12-months that is directly related to the major area of study of an F-1 student. Eligible students have the option to apply for OPT employment authorization before completing their academic studies and/or after completing their academic studies.

A student can participate in three types of Optional Practical Training (OPT):

Pre-Completion OPT: This is temporary employment provided to F-1 students before completion of their course of study.
Post-Completion OPT: This is temporary employment available to F-1 students after completing their course of study.
24 Month STEM Extension: Students enrolled in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) courses can a 24-month extension after their initial Post-Completion OPT authorization.
