Master of Science in Brain Imaging and Cognitive Neuroscience

Program Overview

Our Brain Imaging and Cognitive Neuroscience MSc provides a critical understanding of cognitive neuroscience and specific skills in brain imaging techniques (eg, f/MRI, M/EEG, EEG, brain stimulation and fNIRS). The students will have access to state-of-the-art equipment in the Centre for Human Brain Imaging to conduct

Brain imaging has become central to aspects of all areas of clinical and cognitive neuroscience.

The course will provide fundamental insights into important theories and hands on experience in techniques and analysis methods in cognitive neuroscience. This will be achieved by taught courses as well research projects using the state-of-the-art equipment at the Centre for Human Brain Health. This is a centre dedicated to human brain research housing multiple neuroimaging tools in one building. The programme contains specialised modules on the theory and methods of brain imaging and current advances in cognitive neuroscience linked to these methods taught by experts in the field. An essential part of the course is a practical research project offering the opportunity to apply the newest brain imaging tools. Research projects will be supervised by internationally recognised researchers from the Centre for Human Brain Health and the School of Psychology.

Key features of the course are

Experiencing teaching and one-on-one supervision by internationally recognized researchers
Learning through small group teaching and hands on experience
Specializing in Cognitive Neuroscience, gaining specific skills in neuroimaging and programming
Practicing openess and transparency in science
Finding out what’s really hot in contemporary Cognitive Neuroscience
