Course Summary

Course Overview

Cognitive neuroscience is psychology’s fastest moving and most fundamental area, combining psychology with neuroscience.

Our part-time Cognitive Neuroscience Master’s programme provides research methodology training and in-depth study at the cutting-edge of the field. You’ll gain understanding of the neural basis for cognition and sensorimotor skills and become familiar with modern psychological research methods, including fMRI, EEG, and TMS.

You’ll have access to world-leading facilities for brain imaging research at UEA’s dedicated brain imaging centre (UWWBIC). The course builds to a substantial piece of Master’s research, which you’ll undertake under the supervision of active researchers.

You’ll also benefit from a tailored research placement, through which you can acquire and hone specific skills you need to further your research goals.

The course is ideal if you’re a high-calibre graduate of psychology or a related discipline such as medicine, neuroscience, or biological sciences. It’s great preparation for a PhD in cognitive neuroscience, or a career with a significant research element. Take a look at the School of Psychology’s webpage to find a researcher who works on a topic that interests you. You may pursue a career as a researcher or work in psychology consultancy, data analysis, scientific communication, and government sectors.
