COURSE OVERVIEW

Our cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology Master's programme brings together some of the world's leading researchers in the field of cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology from centres such as the Centre for Brain and Cognitive Development, the Brain and Behaviour Lab and the Birkbeck/UCL Centre for Neuroimaging.

We offer different module combinations to give you the choice of studying for an MA or MSc.
