Our brain and its workings define who we are. Neuroscience is discovering how the nervous system functions in health and disease from the molecular to the behavioural level. It is a vibrant area of science with regular exciting new breakthroughs, but there is still much to be discovered. UCL is the leading neuroscience institution in Europe, and students benefit greatly from a vast reservoir of expertise.
The lecture modules and Journal Club module give a broad overview of contemporary neuroscience research, from the biophysics of an ion channel up to the higher brain functions with many adventures into understanding the brain. This makes the course suitable for those wanting to broaden their neuroscience knowledge. In addition to providing experience and participation in cutting-edge neuroscience, delivered by internationally recognised researchers, the programme generates several transferable skills, notably advanced laboratory research methods, data analysis, computer literacy, oral presentation, critical appraisal of specialised literature, and time management.
Students undertake modules to the value of 180 credits.
The programme consists of four compulsory modules (75 credits), one optional module (15 credits) and a research project (90 credits).
Upon successful completion of 180 credits, you will be awarded a MSc in Neuroscience.
