Neuroscience is the study of the nervous system: the brain and the vast number of essential functions that it controls including learning, memory, sensation, motor control and human behaviour. On this course, you will work alongside leading neuroscientists who are investigating some of the most important questions in neuroscience research in order to gain insight into the mechanisms of human neurological disease. You will also gain a broad understanding of fundamental biological processes, while developing analytical skills and gaining experience in handling complex information. By studying neuroscience alongside options in other biological sciences, you will be able to apply your knowledge across the boundaries of traditional disciplines and gain a valuable and powerful asset in scientific environments and in many other walks of life.The first three years of this course are identical to the Biological Sciences (Neuroscience) BSc, including the option to spend a Year in Industry or a Year Abroad between Years 2 and 3. Your fourth year then lets you focus on refining your research and lab skills - while also putting into practice your employability skills - by conducting a research project.The analytical and critical skills you acquire by studying an MBiolSci in Biological Sciences are particularly valued by PhD supervisors, researchers and employers in non-scientific fields.
