I was wondering whose schools here offer a neuroscience type major instead of just a B.S. in psychology? And, if you are in the prog. would you mind listing what courses, besides the core, are the major requirements? Thanks.

Emory

"neuroscience and behavioral biology"

 

[scriznik]

UF offers an IDS Neuroscience major, it is basically a psych degree heavy in the physiological psych classes and a senior thesis involving research in Neuroscience.

There's also a cognitive science and a behavioral biology major, if you're interested in those.

yeah brandeis is something of a sleeper; its got some really top notch people, particularly in computational neuroscience. it isnt an exaggeration to say those guys wrote the book on comp. neuro.

BRANDEIS UNIVERSITY!!!

I got my B.S. and M.S. in Neuroscience from Brandeis. AWESOME Neuroscience faculty all-around - Neurobiology and Neuropsychology. Definitely reccomend checking out the Volen Center..... http://www.bio.brandeis.edu/volen/

Nice place.....good for doing research and getting published...aaaaand the Neuro was VERY helpful for Neuroanatomy and Neurophysiology in med school.

....but I guess I'm biased. Do ya think? 🙂

Good luck,

care

University of Pittsburgh has a good neuroscience BS program.

 

[TroutBum]

Amherst College offers a BA in neuroscience.

 

[BallerinaTina16]

UC Davis - B.S. in Neurobiology, Physiology, and Behavior.

It is common to for NPB majors to double with psych since some of the classes are so integrated.

Brown does also - one of the only good things about the school. The professors are awesome and they real focus on the undergrads.

MIT has a solid program in the Brain and Cognitive Sciences.
