About Postgraduate Neuroscience

Neuroscience is a discipline within the life sciences that focuses on the study of the brain and nervous system. The subject has wide ranging applications across health, biomedical science, psychology and more.

Postgraduate students of neuroscience will be able to develop specialist knowledge in their chosen area, such as clinical neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience, or neuropsychology. It will also encourage more advanced research skills.

There are more than 170 neuroscience degrees to explore at over 50 universities around the UK, including taught and research master’s degrees and doctoral research qualifications.

What to expect

Entry requirements vary considerably depending on the course you are interested in but you will need a good undergraduate degree. Some universities only accept bachelor’s degrees in biological science or biomedical science because of the lab skills needed. Other universities will also accept psychology and pharmacy degrees.

The modules covered will depend on the course you choose but common topics include learning about cognitive neuroscience, clinical psychology, neuroimaging, neuropharmacology and research methods.

Typical roles for neuroscientists include academic or clinical research, medical tech development, as well as roles in medicine or psychology.
