Bachelor of Science (Neuroscience)
Nationally Recognised Higher EducationNeuroscientists investigate areas of the nervous system. How do nervous systems grow, develop and learn? How do we process the sensory stimuli we receive? You'll be taught by academics with established international reputations in research.
Discover the nervous system at all levels, from molecules that make up individual nerve cells and the transfer of information from one nerve cell to another, to the complexities of how behaviour, thought and emotions are produced. Neuroscientists are interested in how nervous system function can be restored after disease and injury to the brain. Studying a major in Neuroscience means you'll be taught by academics with established international reputations in neuroscience research at all levels.
