Neuroscience continues to emerge as an exciting, interdisciplinary area of research. It integrates psychology, cell biology, genetics, biochemistry, physiology, anatomy, and other branches of the life sciences to provide comprehensive insights into the structure and function of the brain.

Our neuroscientists work in both academic and clinical (i.e. hospital) settings, providing students with opportunities to participate in research projects in a range of specializations.

The field of neuroscience is highly interdisciplinary and offers a wide range of career options. Many practicing neuroscientists have a medical degree or a PhD, or sometimes both, along with postgraduate experience. Upon graduation you could find yourself in any of the following careers (further education may be required)

• speech therapist
