Our MSci Neuroscience course will enable you to achieve an integrated master's degree while you study for a BSc, giving you significant research experience that will be invaluable for a PhD and a career in research. The course examines how the brain and nervous system work to generate behaviour, perception, movement, memory, sleep and other key functions. You will study a range of topics, including physiology, pharmacology, motor systems, sensory systems and more, with the opportunity to choose optional units in particular areas of interest. You will spend your first year studying fundamental principles before going on to specialise in your second and third years. In Year 4, you will undertake a major research project in one of the University's more than 200 research labs to achieve your undergraduate master's award. Our course has Advanced Accreditation from the Royal Society of Biology , which recognises academic excellence in the biosciences and highlights degrees that educate the research and development leaders and innovators of the future.
