神经科学专业允许学生修读跨学科课程，重点是神经系统在调节生理和行为功能中的作用。神经科学结合了许多传统的研究领域，包括心理学，生物学，化学，物理学，解剖学，药理学，语言学和生理学。神经科学领域涵盖从脑细胞的细胞和分子控制到整个生物体反应调节的广泛领域。神经科学专业的学生满足医学预科课程的标准要求，这是推荐或要求进入神经科学或相关研究生课程的研究生课程的要求。该课程还使学生能够进行医学培训，可能专门研究与神经科学有关的领域。神经科学理学学士课程要求九门核心课程的学分，九门选修课程的学分，三门实验室课程的学分
A major in Neuroscience allows a student to pursue an interdepartmental curriculum that focuses on the role of the nervous system in regulating physiological and behavioral functions. Neuroscience combines many traditional fields of study including Psychology, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Anatomy, Pharmacology, Linguistics and Physiology. The field of Neuroscience encompasses a broad domain that ranges from the cellular and molecular control of brain cells to the regulation of responses in whole organisms. The student majoring in Neuroscience fulfills the standard requirements of a premedical curriculum, which is recommended or required for admission to graduate study in Neuroscience or related graduate programs. This curriculum also enables the student to pursue medical training, possibly specializing in an area related to Neuroscience. A Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience requires nine credits of core courses, nine credits of elective courses, three credits of laboratory courses, and 30 credits of co-requisite courses in biology, psychology, chemistry, and physics totaling 51 credits. At least six of the elective lecture credits and one of the laboratory credits must be taken from the list of Neuroscience courses. Students also must fulfill the B.S. mathematics requirement. A student majoring in Neuroscience is strongly encouraged to pursue research in laboratories on the Main Campus or at the Health Sciences Center as an independent study and/or honors thesis. An independent study or honors thesis may fulfill one of the three required laboratory courses.
