Our neuroscience degree will provide you with a deep understanding of the nervous system.You will study its role in human behaviour and brain disorders including schizophrenia, autism, mood disorders and dementia.**Discover the mysteries of the brain**Our brains and nervous systems work together to enable us to make sense of the world around us. They coordinate our body, create emotions and sensations and ultimately determine how we behave.Our Neuroscience BSc will give you the biological and psychological grounding to explore the brain, nervous system and how the body works.You will explore how these insights, and recent scientific advances in these areas, provide a gateway to the development of life-changing treatments and interventions for common conditions such as schizophrenia, autism, mood disorders and dementia.Your degree in neuroscience will be an ideal basis for a host of exciting careers across the pharmaceutical, health, biotechnology and academic sectors, offering you the scientific knowledge, practical lab skills and career-ready mindset to succeed.And, because you will build your skills and competence in experimental design, data recording, analysis and presentation, effective project management, teamwork and communication, you will have the highly-transferable skills valued by employers both within the sciences and in broader fields such as marketing, finance and management.**Your journey through neuroscience**- You will begin, by studying the core principles of neuroscience, pharmacology, genetics and psychology. This will provide you with a firm foundation for the future years of your degree.- In Years 2 and 3 you will develop a deeper insight into the subject by studying themes such as fundamental neuroscience, translational neuroscience and cognitive psychology. You will explore molecules and cells in more depth, get to grips with circuits and systems and build an understanding of drug development. You will also join the broader UK neuroscience community by becoming a member of the British Neuroscience Association (BNA), which offers additional career development opportunities.- Additionally, during Year 3 you will put your learning into practice with an independent research project, working alongside our research-active academics to tackle global healthcare challenges through neuroscience. **A hands-on degree**As a neuroscience student you will get a practical education - putting your learning into practice and becoming skilled in using equipment and techniques to understand the brain from a biological and psychological perspective.You will benefit from the outstanding practical facilities across both biomedical and life sciences and psychology, with access to our state-of-the-art teaching and research facilities. Depending on your choice of modules and dissertation topic you could gain hands-on experience of using equipment and facilities such as:- Fluorescent imaging- Confocal microscopes- Flow cytometers- Spectrophotometric technologies- Plate readers- Thermocyclers- Microscopes- Babylab- Eye tracking technology- Electroencephalography (EEG)- Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Neuronavigation (TMS)- Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS)In taught practical sessions and workshops, you will hone your skills in working as a team, planning and running experiments. Lab work is also a great way to make lasting friendships with your course-mates.In addition to laboratory practical classes and workshops, you will learn through lectures, workshops, tutorials, laboratory reports, essays and case studies, presentations, tests and exams. You will also benefit from digital resources through our online learning environment which will support your independent learning.**Important Information**For the most up-to-date course information and more details, we recommend that you revisit our website before submittin
