Requirements for the Concentration
The neuroscience concentration consists of six courses: Biopsychology (Psychology 238), Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience (Neuroscience 239), three core elective courses, and a capstone seminar. Together, Psychology 238 and Neuroscience 239 provide a foundation and overview of the important and extensive ways in which biological and psychological processes are involved in the regulation and maintenance of behavior. The three core elective courses are selected from appropriate offerings in biology, psychology and chemistry (one 200 level course and one 300 level course), and from neuroscience-related offerings from an area outside the Natural Sciences (one course). The final course for the concentration is a capstone seminar. The prerequisite for this class is the completion of the other requirements in the neuroscience concentration.
