One of the most exciting and dynamic fields of modern science worldwide is Neuroscience, the study of how the nervous system is organized and how it functions. The field of Neuroscience encompasses many disciplines, including biology, biochemistry, computer sciences, electrical engineering (neural modeling of neural networks and biomedical instrumentation), neurology, neurosurgery, pharmacology, physics, physiology, psychology, psychiatry and radiology. Neuroscientists have advanced our understanding of nervous system development, neural function, injuries of the nervous system and disease processes. At MU, neuroscientists investigate the molecular and cellular organization of the nervous system, the structure and function of neural systems (including vision and hearing), behaviors generated by the nervous system, and neurological diseases and disorders.

Degree Dependent: Yes
Total Credit Hours: 12
Certificate description: The purpose of this certificate is to provide formal recognition to post baccalaureate students who are taking neuroscience courses and conducting research in neuroscience laboratories. This stand-alone certificate would allow post-baccalaureate students to have a specific, formal indication of their advanced studies and would be very beneficial to students who are considering applying to graduate degree programs or health sciences programs, such as medical or dental school.
Application Process: Please contact the Director of the INP once you are officially enrolled at MU.
