Bacharelado em Neurociência

Where biology and psychology meet

Dive into dedicated neuroscience classes and deeply connect with peers and professors making discoveries about the brain.

Are you interested in linking brain anatomy to behavior? Then a path in behavioral neuroscience is for you. Do you see yourself dissecting samples and studying how the brain works? You’ll like our functional neuroscience courses.

Your interests dictate your focus, and you’ll collaborate with faculty mentors who share your interests.

Your opportunities after graduation are as diverse as neuroscience itself.

Our graduates accept jobs with pharmaceutical companies, research facilities or as teachers. Some go into the medical field. Combined with our health care studies minor, you’re primed for:

• Medical school
• Veterinary school
• Physical therapy
• Speech therapy
• Accelerated nursing programs

They also go to graduate school in neuroscience, psychology, biology, or business.

Undergraduate only

You won’t compete with graduate students for lab time or to work on the best projects. Our focus is you, and you’ll reap the rewards.

Everything from amnesia and animal personality to why we hoard or become addicted to drugs can be explored through neuroscience research-and is being investigated here.

Every year, we send one of the largest delegations among schools our size to the National Conference for Undergraduate Research (NCUR). Students also present at professional neuroscience conferences and win national awards for their research.

Our students thrive, and you will too, as you are mentored by professors who are both experts in their fields and exceptional teachers. Coursework at Susquehanna is intense — you will enjoy personalized attention from your faculty as they help you learn and develop the skills you need to be a job and/or graduate school ready.
