- Description
- Neuroscience is the study of the structure and function of the nervous system. Neuropsychology, which is a subfield of neuroscience, is the study of the brain and its relationship to affect, behavior, and cognition. Neuropsychology is one of the most rapidly growing fields of study, and with a background in neuropsychology, students have access to a wide variety of careers such as: rehabilitative science (e.g., traumatic brain injury, concussion, stroke, etc.); developmental disabilities (e.g., Autism, ADD/ADHD, Cerebral Palsy, etc.); education and special education; sports health/ medicine gerontology; neurorehabilitation psychiatric nursing; occupational, physical, and speech therapy; public health, law and ethics; basic and applied clinical research; psychometric testing; diagnostic technology; psychiatry; Mental Health Counseling (MHC); pharmacology/industry research; and development of industrial applications for assistive technologies. The Psychology Department is confident that minoring in this rapidly expanding field will make our students significantly more competitive, both for employment and in their pursuit of advanced graduate/professional training in related academic and professional settings. The program is designed as a sequence of interdisciplinary courses, rooted in a unique neuroscience and a social justice framework, offering a broad range of topics to best prepare students with a competitive edge in the global job market.
