About Extended Accelerator - Bachelor of Science - Neuroscience
Program Description
Extended Accelerator Program (EAP) combines language, culture and academics to give students a deep understanding of life in and out of the American classroom and includes personalized English-language instruction and tutoring.
As a student in the Extended Accelerator, you’ll get:
- A contextual curriculum that mixes language, culture and academics
- Exclusive access to a course focusing on life in the U.S. and in the local community
- A full year’s worth of college credits
- Extensive English-language tutoring, academic advising and student support
- Personalized English-language support specific to the classes you take
There is a growing need to train students in neuroscience at the undergraduate level. Such training prepares students to start professional careers at the bachelor’s level in the rapidly growing commercial biotechnology and pharmaceutical sectors. In addition, Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience provides the background for future graduate study and/or the study of medicine. Currently the University of Illinois at Chicago is the only college or university in Illinois that offers a major in neuroscience.
Once the undergraduate has fulfilled the basic course requirements, the program provides the student with an opportunity to concentrate on electives and independent research in one of four areas: Biological Sciences, Psychology, Chemistry or Philosophy. Thus each student graduates with a major in neuroscience but that major will have a distinctive flavor.
