About Neuroscience
Neuroscience is a major program whose curriculum is composed of biology and psychology courses and additional courses in chemistry, physics, mathematics, philosophy and computer science depending upon a student’s particular interest. It is designed to provide the necessary scientific background for students interested in the biological basis of behavior and the relationship of neural and psychological processes. In addition to the core requirements, a flexible program of additional courses are planned during advisement centering around a student’s particular ambitions.
