ماذا سوف أتعلم؟
Our neuroscience degree will provide you with a deep understanding of the nervous system.You will study its role in human behaviour and brain disorders including schizophrenia, autism, mood disorders and dementia.**Discover the mysteries of the brain**Our brains and nervous systems work together to enable us to make sense of the world around us. They coordinate our body, create emotions and sensations and ultimately determine how we behave.Our research-led Neuroscience BSc (Study Abroad) will give you the biological and psychological grounding to explore the brain, nervous system and how the body works.You will explore how this insight, and recent scientific advances in these areas, provide a gateway to life-changing treatments and interventions for common conditions such as schizophrenia, autism, mood disorders and dementia.Together with your year abroad, your degree is an ideal basis for a host of exciting careers across the academic, pharmaceutical, health and biotechnology sectors, offering you the scientific knowledge, practical lab skills and career-ready mindset to succeed.By spending your third year abroad, you will have an opportunity to explore new and different perspectives on your course, while gaining experience of what it is like to live and study in a different country. During your year abroad you are only required to pay 15 per cent of the standard tuition fees.And, because you will build your skills and competence in experimental design, data recording, analysis and presentation, effective project management, teamwork and communication, you will have highly-transferable skills valued by employers both within the sciences and in broader fields such as marketing, finance and management.**Your journey through neuroscience**- You will begin, in Year 1, by studying the core principles of neuroscience, pharmacology, genetics and psychology. This will provide you with a firm foundation for the future years of your degree.- In Years 2 and 4 you will develop a deeper insight into the subject by studying themes such as fundamental neuroscience, translational neuroscience and cognitive psychology. You will explore molecules and cells in more depth, get to grips with circuits and systems and build an understanding of drug development.- In Year 4, you will also put your learning into practice with an independent research project, working alongside our research-active academics to tackle global healthcare challenges through neuroscience. This means that you will graduate equipped with a professional profile ready to embark on a successful career or further study.- In between, you will spend Year 3 with one of our overseas partner universities, immersing yourself in a different culture, meeting new people with diverse perspectives and developing a confident and well-rounded outlook for your final year back in Lancaster. You will also join the broader UK neuroscience community by becoming a member of the British Neuroscience Association (BNA), offering additional career development opportunities.**A hands-on degree**You will get a practical education - putting your learning into practice and becoming skilled in using equipment and techniques to understand the brain from a biological and psychological perspective.You will benefit from the outstanding practical facilities across both biomedical and life sciences and psychology, with access to our state-of-the-art teaching and research facilities.**Your year abroad**Our four-year study abroad degree is an amazing opportunity to broaden your academic horizons, whilst experiencing a different culture and society. You’ll spend your third year studying at one of our trusted international partner universities.Important InformationFor the most up-to-date course information and more details, we recommend that you revisit our website before submitting your application.
