Neuroscience

专业介绍

The Neuroscience Major is a multidisciplinary program at the University of Washington that leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in Neuroscience. It is designed to take advantage of the depth of expertise in neurobiology among faculty in many departments at UW, which has been for many years one of the leading institutions in the world in neuroscience research. Neuroscience is the interdisciplinary study of the nervous system, whose ultimate goal is to understand higher brain function and neurological disease at the cellular and molecular level. Neurobiologists combine molecular, electrophysiological, computational, and behavioral approaches to achieve this goal. For most of us, the excitement of this field comes from the attempt to understand the organ that defines us as individual, conscious human beings. We want to bring that excitement to you as undergraduates.

This program of study leads to the following credential:

• Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Neuroscience
