计算和神经系统学位课程是由生物学，工程与应用科学以及物理，数学和天文学部共同组织的。该计划的目的是在这个固有的多学科领域中提供广泛的知识，同时要求在论文研究的特定领域中具有适当的知识深度。例如，从事早期视觉处理的合作电路的学生将还将发展对早期视觉区域的解剖学和电生理的深入了解以及对视觉心理物理学的了解。研究嗅觉皮层电生理及其模拟的学生将包括并发处理和嗅觉行为学的研究以及相关知识研究复杂系统理论的学生可以研究物理学的集体和统计特性，以及生物学和应用网络的解剖学和算法结构。在神经生物学，计算神经科学的界面进行
An integrated approach to graduate study combining computation and neural systems is organized jointly by the Division of Biology and Biological Engineering, the Division of Engineering and Applied Science, and the Division of the Humanities and Social Sciences. This curriculum is designed to promote a broad knowledge of aspects of molecular, cellular, and systems biology, cognitive neu-roscience, computational biology and computational neuroscience, information and learning theory, emergent or collective systems, and computer science and electrical engineering in conjunction with an appropriate depth of knowledge in the particular field of the thesis research.
