Beschreibung des Programms

Embrace the world of neuroscience and human behaviour, and be ready to respond to challenges and new discoveries in this exciting field of research and therapy. Develop an advanced understanding of neural processes and how these drive behaviour and clinical phenomena with UNE's Master of Neuroscience. Our flexibly-delivered course provides you with an in-depth study of human physiology, neurobiology, neuroanatomy, clinical neuroscience and behavioural neuroscience. If you wish to broaden your knowledge or upskill in a professional clinical role, or you have completed undergraduate studies in neuroscience, this course is ideal. It equips you with the knowledge you need to further your career in this dynamic and diverse field, with the opportunity to choose a clinical, general or research pathway.

Why study the Master of Neuroscience with UNE?

Neuroscience is one of the fastest growing areas of study in human physiology. Whether you have a clinical role and wish to upskill and expand on your expertise, or you hold an undergraduate major in neuroscience and wish to advance your research knowledge, UNE's Master of Neuroscience gives you the opportunity to further understand how the brain works.

Develop your knowledge of how the brain maintains human behaviour and cognition, what may go wrong in those neurobiological processes, and the ways that research and remediation are conducted and translated to practice in multidisciplinary settings.

Our course, offered flexibly by Australia's most experienced university in the delivery of online education, provides you with the core theoretical and practical knowledge that underpins neuroscience, with the freedom to choose to complete a clinical, research, or general neuroscience pathway.

What makes our course different?

By undertaking a Master of Neuroscience with UNE, you will have the opportunity to:

Choose the pathway of study that is relevant to your interests and best matches your strengths. After completing you ten core neuroscience units, you can choose to follow one of three course pathways:

The Clinical Experience Pathway involves the completion of clinically-focused units as well as an independent study unit or practicum, including laboratory, professional, and/or clinical activities under the supervision of a member of the academic staff.

The Research Pathway allows you to choose a specialised area of neuroscience to investigate independently and produce a research thesis demonstrating your skills in problem solving, critical thinking and analysis. This can also be a pathway to future higher degree research. We usually require that you spend some time on campus if you choose this course plan, so that you can consult with your supervisor.

The General Pathway provides you with the opportunity to choose from a broad range of listed units, giving you a comprehensive understanding of neuroscience and its application in various health care and research settings.

  • Learn with world-class researchers. UNE's research in Medical and Health Science has been rated well above world standard in the most recent evaluation Excellence in Research Australia review, administered by the Australian Research Council. Our Brain-Behaviour Research Group focuses on two major areas of clinical importance: depression and autism, and the ways in which research findings can be translated to clinical applications to optimise outcomes.
  • Gain multidisciplinary skills, with exposure to research methodology from a range of disciplines, including biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, behaviour, clinical and medical psychology, computer modelling and physiology.
  • Study flexibly – we know that you need to balance study with family, work and other commitments. All our neuroscience units are offered online, with options that allow you to study across all three trimesters each year, and several core units are offered twice each year. Study at a time and place that suits you.
  • Take advantage of our alternative admission pathways. For example, if you hold a relevant Graduate Certificate or Graduate Diploma in Science you may be eligible for advanced standing for units already completed, meaning that you can fast-track completion of your Master of Neuroscience.

At UNE, we have a rich tradition of providing high-quality learning in neuroscience. Our postgraduate science students rate UNE highly, awarding us the maximum 5-star ratings for Teaching Quality and Overall Experience in The Good Universities Guide, year after year. In fact, students consistently award UNE 5-star ratings for Overall Experience and Student Support, so when you study with us you are in good hands.

Study online

Most of our students choose to study online across three study periods with 24/7 tutor support* and fit study around work and family commitments. Uniquely, our online students are mostly over 30 and bring valuable experience with them. They form a community of adults juggling the same challenges and priorities and who bring their life and work experience together at UNE in order to become future-fit and better respond to a rapidly changing world.

Study on campus

Many of our students choose to take advantage of the on-campus lifestyle in Armidale, in the beautiful New England region, with access to unparalleled support, accommodation and sporting facilities. These students are often starting their first degree and have left school recently. Through access to academic and career support they get a fantastic start to their careers.

24/7 tutor support includes: essay feedback (within 24 hours); live chat 24/7 for generic feedback on academic writing; and subject-specific help at a foundation or first-year level for subjects including mathematics, chemistry, biology, physics, business, accounting, microeconomics, macroeconomics and statistics. There are also a wide range of workshops, resources and courses available in academic skills support to assist you and help you to succeed.

Informationen über das Institut

UNE is one of Australia’s oldest universities with a 85 year reputation for excellence in teaching, learning and research. The University of New England (UNE) was the first Australian university established outside a capital city. With a history extending back to the 1920’s UNE has a well-earned reputation as one of Australia’s best teaching, training and research universities. Many graduates of UNE have gone on to hold senior positions around Australia - and overseas - in business, government, education, research and community development. UNE has over 22,000 enrolled students with the majority studying their course online. There are over 4,500 students that study on the University’s traditional Armidale campus, including over 1,200 international students from over 70 different countries.
