NEUR

9 courses with the subject NEUR, 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.

NEUR 105Introduction to Neuroscience4

This course will be a broad introduction to neuroscience. Important general principles of nervous system structure and function will be emphasized, as well as broad scientific proficiency as a foundation for further interdisciplinary study of the neural basis of behavior. Topics may include comparative vertebrate and invertebrate neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, sensory and motor systems, behavioral neurobiology, neuropharmacology, and neural basis of cognition. 3 lecture and one 2-hour lab periods.

NEUR 210Decision Making3

This course will explore the behavioral and biological elements affecting the ways humans make decisions. Common myths about decision-making will serve as vehicles for exploring the drives that influence human choice. Students will examine the interdisciplinary nature of decision-making, considering contributions from not only neuroscience, but also economics, management, psychology, and possibly other fields. Understanding rational decision processes will be discussed in the context of choices facing modern citizen leaders. *Fulfills Civitae Core FHBS SI
