BS Neuroscience

The Western New England University Neuroscience major integrates knowledge from psychology, biology, engineering, and chemistry. Neuroscientists work toward a common goal: to understand the structure, development, and function of the nervous system. In this research-rich environment that supports a curriculum steeped in scientific investigation, students work with faculty in all stages of research, including project design, data collection, and results reporting. Neuroscientists use an ever-increasing range of tools to examine the molecular, structural, physiological, cognitive, and behavioral aspects of the brain and nervous system.
