Gain hands-on experience in our state-of-the-art research facilities on this highly practical Master’s, and understand the relationship between complex cognitive functions and their underlying brain mechanisms.
You'll explore the structure and function of the brain, examine the cognitive neuroscience of health and disease and how it relates to cognitive function, and learn the latest research techniques and methodologies. This includes:
Hands-on research experience using cutting-edge tools like MRI, EEG, eye-tracking, brain stimulation (TMS, tDCS), and cognitive testing.
Research methods and statistics, and through your dissertation complete an original research project to excel in the evolving field of cognitive neuroscience.
Communication skills for post-graduation success, including manuscript construction and effective presentations
2:2 undergraduate degree in Psychology, Neuroscience, Biology, Medicine, Biomedical Science, or a related subject
There are several career pathways this MSc can lead to.
The solid understanding of applied cognitive neuroscience principles and techniques, and the experience in research, will equip you with the skills and knowledge for a career in cognitive neuroscience research, whether in academia or industry.
You'll be equiped to succeed in a wide range of graduate careers, particularly those which require experience in data analysis, scientific and non-scientific communication skills, and skills in writing/publications, including finance, business, medicine, marketing and more.
