Beschreibung des Programms

Students entering the Neuroscience Program at Brandeis have the opportunity to work in a variety of fields, ranging from the structure and function of ion channels to systems and cognitive neuroscience. Brandeis University has an outstanding and highly interactive research community housed within the Volen Center and adjoining buildings. This close proximity facilitates the high degree of collaboration and exchange for which Brandeis has become famous. The Neuroscience Program currently has over 20 faculty members from five participating departments (Biology, Biochemistry, Psychology, Chemistry, and Computer Science).

Graduate Program (MS) in Neuroscience

The graduate program in neuroscience, leading to the MS degree, is designed to equip students with the advanced knowledge and training necessary to conduct research in this interdisciplinary field. The program comprises three broadly defined areas:

behavioral neuroscience involves work with humans in neuropsychology, with experimental cognitive neuroscience and sensory psychophysics, and with animal behavior and electrophysiology;

cellular and molecular neuroscience provides training in electrophysiology, molecular biology, biophysics, and biochemistry appropriate to neurobiology; and

computational and integrative neuroscience trains students in the use of experimental and theoretical methods for the analysis of brain function.

Students pursuing the MS degree typically take graduate-level courses and do independent laboratory research. The residency requirement is one year, and there is an optional extension to complete a Masters's thesis.

Informationen über das Institut

There is no other place like Brandeis. As a medium-sized private research university with a global reach, we are dedicated to first-rate undergraduate education while making groundbreaking discoveries.

Our 235-acre campus is located in the suburbs of Boston, a global hub for higher education and innovation.

Our faculty are leaders in their fields, as passionate about teaching and mentorship as they are about pushing the boundaries of knowledge. Our students are motivated, compassionate, curious, and open to exploring new and challenging experiences.

At Brandeis, you will discover a community rooted in purpose, guided by our founding values, poised to lead in education and research in the 21st century.

Brandeis was established in 1948 by the American Jewish community at a time when Jews and other ethnic and racial minorities, and women, faced discrimination in higher education. Our visionary founders created a nonsectarian research university that welcomed talented faculty and students of all backgrounds and beliefs. From the outset, Brandeis focused on undergraduate education, while building a pioneering research enterprise.
