Epilepsy, strokes and schizophrenia – what causes these conditions and what can we do to prevent or alleviate them?
Core to this course, is the study of the structure and function of the human brain and nervous system. Topics also include how to understand and treat neurological disorders. In seminar sessions and hands-on lab work, you’ll be trained in modern experimental techniques. You’ll also gain computing, programming, data-analysis and communication skills.
You’ll join a friendly and supportive community of students and scientists in the School of Life Sciences. Our experts specialise in areas ranging from medicine and neuroanatomy, to genes and development. Our research underpins your teaching.
Sussex was the first university in the UK to offer a degree in neurobiology. And we’re currently the only place to offer an undergraduate course in Medical Neuroscience in the UK. You’ll benefit from our close connections with Brighton & Sussex Medical School, based on campus.
Many Medical Neuroscience students aim to specialise in a branch of Medicine. This is why we offer a guaranteed interview scheme for Medicine at Brighton & Sussex Medical School, if you meet certain criteria. Many other careers are also open to you, in areas including:
- the pharmaceutical or biotechnology industries
- academic research
- science writing or publishing
- science engagement.
And in addition, in your integrated Masters year, you gain a strong theoretical and practical foundation for a career in – or related to – research. You’ll spend a semester working on an individual research project in one of our Neuroscience research teams. This year focuses on developing advanced skills in applied neuroscience research techniques, analytical approaches and scientific communication.
Our courses adapt to the latest demands of the working world and are informed by our Employer Advisory Panel of key organisations which hire our graduates. Our employability strand develops research skills, professional competencies, and includes dedicated sessions with our Careers and Entrepreneurship Team to help you bolster your CV, train for interviews, map out career trajectories, and more.
