BS Neuroscience

Neuroscience is the multidisciplinary study of brain function. It examines the complex interactions of multiple neuronal systems that underlie the emergence and rich diversity of cognitive function and the regulation and expression of all forms of behavior, in humans and all other species.

The UT Dallas neuroscience program provides students with the opportunity to focus on the brain from multiple perspectives, beginning with our introduction to neuroscience course and moving on to coursework concentrating on cellular, neurophysiological, anatomical, developmental, pharmacological and molecular issues. It allows extensive interactions with neuroscientists, and encourages participation using the latest experimental methods in research laboratories. Additionally, students are encouraged to gain research experience by volunteering in faculty-led neuroscience labs on campus.
