神经科学是对神经细胞及其相互作用的研究。通过揭开正常大脑功能的奥秘，神经科学促进了我们对破坏许多人生命的毁灭性疾病的理解。带有心理学的神经科学计划旨在灌输有关神经系统功能的广泛知识基础。这是通过自下而上的方法通过在分子和细胞水平上对神经系统的理解来完成的，还可以通过行为神经心理学的自上而下的方法来完成的。该学位为您提供了在工业，商业或研究环境中工作一年的机会，并在五年后以MSci（本科硕士学位）而不是BSc的身份毕业。
Neuroscience is the study of nerve cells and how they work together. By unravelling the mysteries of normal brain function, Neuroscience promotes our understanding of the devastating illnesses of the brain which afflict the lives of so many people.<br>The Neuroscience with Psychology programme aims to instil a broad base of knowledge regarding the functioning of the nervous system. This is done via a bottom-up approach through an understanding of the nervous system at a molecular and cellular level, but also via a top-down approach through behavioural neuropsychology.<br>Neuroscientists have to push technologies to the limit to study the nature neural function by recording from individual nerve cells and even from single molecules to understand diseases. Neuroscience research aims to understand diseases such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Huntington's diseases. It can also include work on the optic nerves, cardiac function, sense of smell, difficulty in swallowing, weakness in the muscles and other diseases and health problems since many of these have a neural basis.
