Concentrated focus on a selected topic in Neuroscience. Topic and content vary from semester to semester.
Introduction to the neuroscience program, including current developments and future prospects. Designed to preparestudents for current studies and future careers. Required for all first-year neuroscience students; open to all interestedstudents.
Introduction to neuron structure and function, synaptic transmission, organization of the nervous system, brain-behaviorrelationships, and current neuroscience methods.
This course focuses on the biological foundations of behavior and cognition. Fundamental methods and processes of thebehavioral neuroscience will be emphasized including motivation, emotion, language, attention, memory, and mentalillness.
Concentrated focus on a selected topic in Neuroscience. Topic and content vary from semester to semester.
This course will provide a working knowledge of the neurobiological and neurochemical basis of behavior and the mechanism by which drugs influence synaptic neurotransmission to alter behavior and function in neurologic and psychiatric disorders.

The chief purpose of the Independent Study Project is for the student to acquire knowledge or skills in a particular area of neuroscience, typically in the form of a literary research project, and to produce a summary report/poster/presentation of some kind. The content, format, and final product of the Independent Study is negotiated between student and faculty mentor. Permission of faculty instructor and the Neuroscience Program Director are required.

This course introduces biophysical models of the brain and the nervous system functioning. In particular the physics of theneocortex is presented through the analysis of EEG studies. Simulations with software packages are employed to illustratewith various examples the models and their results. Linear electrical analogs and some basics of neural network theory arepart of the course content. Elements of Biophysics of consciousness are also presented and a set of case studies is analyzedand discussed.

This course is the culmination of student directed research or independent study. Students will present and discussresearch with the class. Students will justify research predictions and design, explain primary findings, anddefend conclusions in the field of neuroscience.
Internships enable the student to gain first-hand experience working in some field of neuroscience. Interns should work a minimum of 10 hours weekly for 12 weeks to earn credit for a single course. Permission to take an internship for course credit must be obtained prior to beginning the internship.

Laboratory or field work in neuroscience on a specific problem in cooperation with a faculty member of the department. Normally requires three hours of work per week for each unit of credit. This course may be taken for credit multiple semesters but only one semester counts as a neuroscience elective. In subsequent semesters this course will count as a general elective. Students need to complete the application form for independent study and have the approval of the program and Associate Dean.
