Master of Science in Neuroscience
Program Overview
Explore the brain and study all aspects of the nervous system from the molecular to the behavioural with our MSc Neuroscience degree. Help improve understanding of brain function and address key challenges facing society such as neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric conditions.
This course is ideal if you want to pursue a career in neuroscience or work in the neuro-pharmaceutical industry, or are interested in further study.
Learn about brain function and dysfunction, and gain experience in some of the latest experimental neuroscience techniques. You’ll learn from neuroscience researchers at the forefront of their specialisms and gain a breadth of knowledge in experimental, applied and translational neuroscience.
Key areas of your learning include advanced human neuroanatomy, and neuronal and glial physiology in health and disease. This is complemented by research focused, experimental workshops covering:
- Neuro-drug discovery
- Model organisms in neurological disease
- Dementia research including ipsc-models and neuropathological studies
- Neural networks
- Behavioural neurosciences
- Cell and molecular neurobiology
- Interdisciplinary neuroscience
You’ll carry out an individual research-based project, in one of 14 research labs in our purpose-built Life Sciences building. Themes could include anything from circadian biology, ageing processes and synaptic physiology to dementia research, neuroinflammation and translational research.
You can choose optional modules such as:
- Critiques on current research seminars
- Neuroimaging
- Critical thinking
There's also an exciting opportunity to attend a national or international neuroscience conference.
