Program details

Overview

A master in neurosciences taught entirely in English, covering how the brain works in healthy and disease conditions and applicable in academic or industrial research. Its multi-scale approach starts at the level of neuronal cells and synapses, moves to neural networks, and explains the brain circuits behind human and animal behaviour. The first year is common and lets students choose optional courses from semester 2. In the second year students choose one of three tracks: fundamental and clinical neuroscience (FCN), sensory neuroscience analysis (SNA) and computational neuroscience (CNS). Two internship periods are included: seven weeks in the first year and five to six months in the second year, in a laboratory or a company.
