Program details

Overview

This English-taught master's degree studies how the brain and nervous system work, examining everything from individual molecules up to whole-organism behaviour through a mix of hands-on experiments and theory-building. The field draws on biology and medicine together with psychology-oriented behavioural research, computer science paired with engineering, and mathematics alongside physics, and extends beyond fundamental research into developing and applying new technologies that can monitor, repair, replace or boost how the nervous system functions. Teaching brings together expertise from the faculties of biology, engineering, and behavioural sciences and economics, offering a coherent programme that trains the next generation of neuroscientists and connects fundamental research with technological innovation relevant to medical devices and pharmaceuticals. Graduates are prepared for research careers in academic neuroscience, or for roles in the medical-device and pharmaceutical industries that build on neuroscientific advances.
