Neuroscience

About the MS Program
The MS program gives students a broad background in neuroscience and the techniques used in neuroscience research. A master’s thesis based on a laboratory research project is a requirement for the degree. Students who
wish to continue their graduate training after completing the MS degree requirements may apply to the PhD program, and their credits may be applied to the doctoral program.

About the PhD Program
The PhD program trains individuals to conduct independent research and to teach in the neurosciences. The program includes two years of coursework followed by original research leading to a thesis. Laboratory rotations begin in the fall of the first year.
