9 courses with the subject NSC, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
NSC 130• Introduction to Neuroscience3
An introduction to the biological basis of behavior. Focuses on two main themes: the cellular, molecular, and genetic processes that form the foundation of nervous system function and the systems-level organization of the nervous system that forms the foundation of human and animal behavior. Corequisites: Concurrent registration in NSC 130D is required. Offered: Spring.
Principles and practice of neuroscience laboratory techniques. Laboratory and lecture experience are integrated to include an introduction to histological, molecular, electrophysiological, and computer-based neuroscience research. Collection of qualitative and quantitative data and data analysis. Prerequisites: BIO 120/BIO 120D or BIO 124/BIO 124D and NSC 130/NSC 130D; PSY 230M. Corequisites: Concurrent registration in NSC 351 is required. Offered: Spring, even # years.
Nervous system of animals and humans from the subcellular to organismic and behavioral levels. Includes significant attention to the senses as well as mechanisms of neuronal communication, plasticity, and memory. Prerequisites: BIO 218 or both PSY 101 and NSC 130/NSC 130D. Corequisites: Concurrent registration in NSC 359 is required. Offered: Fall. Special Notes: This course carries cross-credit in biological sciences.
Laboratory experience accompanying NSC 358. Corequisites: Concurrent registration in NSC 358 is required. Offered: Fall. Special Notes: This course carries cross-credit in biological sciences.
A learning/practicing experience in which the student applies neurological understanding and skills in an off-campus professional setting. Prerequisites: Major in neuroscience and Junior or senior standing. Offered: Fall, Spring.
NSC 495• Neuroscience Literature Review and Senior Seminar4
Survey of contemporary and classical neuroscience literature. Topics of the students’ choosing are researched, discussed, and methodologies assessed. Students evaluate a variety of neuroscience research. Readings and discussion of topics that relate neuroscience to Christian faith as well as moral, ethical and societal issues. Prerequisites: major in neuroscience and Junior standing. Offered: Fall.
Students collect original data through independent laboratory/field research under the supervision of a neuroscience faculty member. Data is analyzed and conclusions are drawn and reported. Prerequisites: NSC 130/NSC 130D and Consent of instructor. Offered: Fall, Spring.
