Neuroscience is the study of the nervous system, from the molecular processes taking place in nerve cells to the functioning of the mind. The human brain contains one hundred billion cells, and how it works remains one of the most intriguing of all scientific questions. Can the brain understand the brain? Can the brain understand the mind? Is the brain a giant computer or something more?
On our Neuroscience programme, you will explore these questions, using approaches that range from the biochemistry and physiology of the nerve cells to a psychologist’s investigation of the machinery of the mind.
This programme offers a high degree of flexibility, offering you the freedom to shape your academic experience. You can choose to specialise in a particular area or to maintain a wide breadth of learning and explore the interdisciplinary research that underpins much of the School’s success.
Your degree title remains flexible up until your final year, allowing you to either continue with BSc Neuroscience or switch to another of our bioscience courses. Your final degree title will depend on module selection, and your Personal Tutor will guide you through the options available to you. You may also have the option of switching to our four-year MNeuro integrated master's degree, which forms an excellent basis for a future career in scientific research.
Our graduates have gone on to a range of exciting and fulfilling careers in both scientific and non-scientific related fields, including medical and scientific research, healthcare, scientific publishing, biological and pharmaceutical industries, toxicology, teaching and science journalism. Many also choose to further their studies by pursuing a master’s degree or PhD.
