Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Neuroscience

The vision of the Neuroscience major program is to teach learners the fundamental principles of neuroscience in the context of a research-focused curriculum so that each student will be well prepared to pursue a career in the field of neuroscience, cognitive psychology or an allied health field. Neuroscience graduates are broadly trained in the foundational disciplines of biology, psychology, chemistry and statistics.

Students then have the opportunity to tailor their major by selecting the most appropriate cognate courses in computer science, engineering, physics and philosophy and upper level biology or psychology courses, which best suite their specific career goals. They have the opportunity to apply their foundational knowledge to novel problems in neuroscience in a collaborative research capstone experience in their junior or senior year.
