Diploma for Graduates in Neuroscience

The University of Otago

Neuroscience is all about understanding how the brain and wider nervous system works, and it's one of the fastest growing areas of science. The University of Otago is the only New Zealand university to offer an undergraduate degree in Neuroscience. Neuroscientists apply a wide range of scientific disciplines, including Anatomy, Biochemistry, Computer Science, Pharmacology, Physiology, Psychology, and Zoology. As an interdisciplinary programme, Neuroscience is taught by staff from varied departments across the University. Each teaches a separate ''neuro'' component, resulting in a coherent and integrated subject.
