Integrative Neuroscience

Students must complete the departmental common graduate curriculum in Psychology, including courses, research requirements and mentored teaching experiences.

As part of this curriculum and with one additional course, IN students complete:

  1. Two Psychology Department Breadth Courses
  2. Two Core Neuroscience Courses. 

For students entering in Autumn 2025 and later, students should complete two Core Neuroscience courses from the list below:

  • NURB 30600: Neuroscience Core Sequence: Cellular Neuroscience
  • NURB 30700: Neuroscience Core Sequence: Behavioral Neuroscience (available to Psychology students as of Winter 2027)
  • NURB 30800: Neuroscience Core Sequence: Systems Neuroscience

For students entering in Autumn 2024 and earlier, you may complete two Core Neuroscience courses from the list above or the previous offerings of the Neuroscience core courses:

  • CPNS 30000 Cellular Neurobiology
  • CPNS 30107 Behavioral Neuroscience
  • CPNS 30116 Survey of Systems Neuroscience
