神经生物学专业旨在教学生神经生物学家如何应用细胞，分子，系统和行为分析来了解神经系统的工作原理。该专业的标志是长达一年的深入探索，这些智力工具用于创建，促进和传播有关神经系统的知识。通过神经生物学卫星课程，学生可以获得有关神经生物学的高级事实知识。此外，神经生物学专业的学生可以选择通过BIO SCI 199参与研究，他们将在此学习技术技能并接受教师的指导。完成神经生物学专业的学生将有资格进入研究生或专业学校，为生物学研究，医学，牙科，兽医，护理和其他相关领域的职业做好准备。即使没有额外的教育，他们也将在制
The Neurobiology major is designed to teach students how neurobiologists apply cellular, molecular, systems, and behavioral analyses in understanding how the nervous system works. The hallmark of the major is a year-long, in-depth exploration of the intellectual tools used to create, advance, and disseminate knowledge about the nervous system. Through neurobiology satellite courses, students acquire advanced factual knowledge about neurobiology. In addition, Neurobiology majors may choose to participate in research through BIO SCI 199, where they will learn technical skills and receive mentoring from faculty members. Students completing the Neurobiology major will be well qualified for admission to graduate or professional schools in preparation for careers in biological research, medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, nursing, and other related fields. Even without additional education, they will be competitive for positions in the pharmaceutical industry, the health care delivery industry, or in medically or biologically related technologies. The major also provides valuable preparation for students interested in entering other disciplines that increasingly interface with biology and biotechnology, such as law, business administration, and government policy. Additionally, the major provides excellent preparation for students who wish to become high school science teachers.
