B-W’s Neuroscience program is dynamic, unifying psychology, biology and chemistry through strong academics, hands-on research and one-on-one mentoring. It focuses on the brain and its functioning, including structure, physiology, pharmacology and cognitive/behavioral functions.
Results oriented
Published papers, presentations at international scientific conferences, federally funded student internship opportunities at leading universities, and a 95 percent overall acceptance rate for those who have applied to graduate programs or medical school demonstrate the success of B-W neuroscience students.
Relevant research
Some schools limit laboratory work to seniors and grad students. But at B-W, faculty involve students in research from the start. You can get hands-on experience doing all aspects of science from research design to data collection and grant writing. Research topics address a spectrum of neurological diseases and drug effects, as well as learning and memory.
Mentoring
Whether they are in the classroom, a lab, or advising one-on-one, B-W’s neuroscience professors work alongside students. Their combined academic backgrounds, impressive educational credentials, plus real-world experiences form a solid multidisciplinary approach.
Field for the future
A growing field, neuroscience graduates work at colleges/universities, medical schools, research institutes, industry and government organizations. Neuroscience majors with a bachelor’s degree may find positions in biotech firms, government labs, and pharmaceutical firms, among other areas. Students who pursue graduate education may become:
