Boston University

Program Overview

The BBC program is designed to be rigorous and cross-disciplinary. The program works on the apprenticeship model, with a strong emphasis on laboratory and research training. Graduate students join research laboratories starting in their first semester of graduate school, allowing them to define, design, and develop their educational and research goals early. The program is research intensive, supplemented by coursework essential to understanding the relationship between brain, behavior, and cognition. Coursework requirements are normally completed within the first 2 years of study, allowing students ample time to gain critical laboratory skills over the course of training.
