Masters Degrees in Neuroscience

The new Dementia MSc is offered jointly by the UCL Institute of Neurology and the Division of Psychiatry and tackles one of the biggest global health problems facing society today. Read more

One of the longest running postgraduate programmes in clinical neuroscience in the UK. It will give you an insight into recent advances in neurosciences of relevance to neurological and neuropsychiatric diseases. Read more

It’s widely recognised by modern neuroscience that taking a systems approach to exploring the brain is vital to understanding brain function. Read more

During this online distance learning neuroscience course, you’ll study the fundamentals of neuroscience, neuroanatomy and neurobiology and learn how insights from the laboratory are translated into treatments for patients. Read more

One of the greatest challenges in modern science is to understand the relationship between brain and behaviour. Read more

Lead academic. Dr Julie Simpson This neuroscience course combines taught modules on the fundamental aspects of the major nervous system diseases, with the development of practical laboratory skills encompassing neuroscience, histopathology, molecular pathology and microscopy. Read more

Lead academic. Dr Jonathan Wood Translational neuroscience is focused on the molecular basis of neurodegeneration, and looks at how neuroscience laboratory research relating to brain structure and brain function informs the development of new therapies for diseases of the nervous system. Read more

The MSc Cognitive Neuroscience and Human Neuroimaging programme provides you with training in neuroanatomy, neuroimaging, neurophysiological data collection, and analysis techniques, allowing you to investigate and understand human behaviour, ready to make discoveries at the frontier of modern cognitive neuroscience. Read more

Learn how different brain functions contribute to cognition, mediate social interaction, and determine mental health, well-being and psychiatric illness. Read more

Neuroscience is a discipline concerned with the scientific study of the nervous system in health and disease. Research in the neurosciences is of considerable clinical impact considering the debilitating and costly effects of neurological and psychiatric disease. Read more

Data capture and analysis techniques to understand brain-behaviour relationships are continually emerging, creating a need for in-depth knowledge of neuroscience methods and their applications to understand brain function when healthy through cognitive neuroscience, and when disease strikes through clinical neuroscience.
