Neuroscience is the study of the nervous system. It includes study and research related to the structure (anatomy), function (neuropharmacology, electrophysiology, synaptic physiology, molecular/cellular biology, psychophysics), evolution, and development of nervous systems of a wide variety of animals, broadly organized as sensory (input/afferent) systems, processing systems, and motor (output/efferent) systems.
The major in neuroscience provides opportunities in many areas, including preprofessional preparation (preparing for medical school, dental school, veterinary school, or other allied health training), pre-graduate preparation (preparing for further training as a neuroscientist or scientist in a related field), or direct entry into the research field, either academic or private. |
