专业概况

在这里学什么？

Neuroscience is a cross-disciplinary major centered on studying the brain and the nervous system. It combines many traditional fields of study, including biology, psychology, chemistry, physics, anatomy, pharmacology, physiology, engineering, mathematics, and computer science.

The brain is perhaps the most remarkable phenomenon in the biological universe, controlling who we are and all that we do—from the regulation of our every function to the execution of complex thoughts and emotions.

Because understanding the brain impacts every aspect of our lives, neurobiologists contribute to a wide variety of career fields.

The neuroscience major at WSU also offers specialization tracks for pre-medicine students and pre-veterinary students as well as three options in computational neuroscience.

Strengths of the program

Learn in small classes, providing a more personal and effective experience. Take advantage of internship and leadership opportunities, network with professors and veterinary professionals, and meet other students through the Neuroscience Club and CVM Promoters. Turn classroom knowledge into real-world experience doing innovative research on substance abuse and addictions, eating disorders, sleep and circadian rhythms, vision disorders, spinal cord injuries, emotional states, reproduction, muscle impairments, and heart disease. Neuroscience students work and study in state-of-the-art facilities, including the Veterinary and Biomedical Research Building, an innovative research and teaching facility that gives you access to top of the line research equipment. Pursue a simultaneous minor in biology, chemistry, foreign language, psychology, or many other options if you wish.

Requirements and core courses

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The bachelor of science in neuroscience covers a broad spectrum of science, encompassing all aspects of the brain and nervous system.

The program is interdisciplinary and interdepartmental, combining the expertise and resources of faculty in the University's College of Veterinary Medicine, the College of Arts and Sciences, the Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture, and the College of Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences.

Careers in neuroscience

A bachelor’s degree in neuroscience from WSU uniquely prepares graduates to enter the growing biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, where much research is devoted to neurodegenerative diseases.

The degree can also lead to professional programs such as medical, veterinary, dental, or graduate school.

A major in neurology prepares students for many careers including research/academic careers (professor, neurobiology researcher), professional health careers (medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, pharmacy, etc.), laboratory technician, technical/pharmaceutical/veterinary sales, biotechnology, science journalism, and more.

WSU graduates find employment researching neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, AIDS, dementia, and multiple sclerosis. Other employment areas include laboratory and medical technical specialties, health care specialties, physical therapy, education, scientific or pharmaceutical sales, veterinary technical assistance, technical writing, nutrition, pharmacy, research assistance, scientific illustration, and patent law.
