University at Buffalo · Buffalo, NY

A checklist is the list of requirements to complete this program and receive the award, as the college publishes it in its catalog. It is the same for everyone. It does not say what you have completed; that comes from applying your own record.

Description
How does drug addiction actually work? What controls our hunger and thirst? How do we recognize emotions in other people? What causes Down syndrome? As a neuroscience major, you’ll use your brain to learn about brains (and the rest of the nervous system, of course). This program is designed for students who are good at bio and chem and are up for the challenge of studying the most complex organ in the human body.
