Neuroscience
Neuroscience is a major and minor that focuses on the study of the brain and nervous system. The interdisciplinary nature of neuroscience requires familiarity with multiple disciplines, including biology, chemistry, computational science, physics, and psychology. As a result, courses and laboratory experiences emphasize behavioral, cellular, molecular, cognitive, computational, pharmacological, and biophysical approaches.
