Neuroscience Minor


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Academic Departments and Degrees

The neuroscience minor is structured on the existing disciplinary course infrastructures. The minor consists of a total of 23 credit hours, combining three core neuroscience courses listed below with flagged courses from multiple disciplines, thus allowing students to tailor their own specialized program to match their interests.

In Addition


In addition to the core courses, students are required to take 12 credits of flagged courses, only 8 of which may be taken in the student’s major department and satisfy the requirements for the student’s major. These courses include:

Psychology


Important Considerations:


  1. Students with majors outside of psychology are strongly encouraged to take PSY 100 - Introduction to Psychology  to fulfill their Social Science I General Education Requirement. This class will prepare them for the upper-level flagged courses offered through the psychology department.
  2. Students with 1) majors outside of biology and 2) who are interested in taking a flagged course in biology are strongly encouraged to take BIOL 221 - Human Physiology  as their flagged course in neuroscience
  3. Students can receive credit for taking BIOL 221  or BIOL 442 , but not for both classes.
  4. Students must take NSCI 411  and NSCI 412  in the same academic year.
  5. Students should attempt to take as many of their flagged courses as possible prior to enrolling in NSCI 411 .
