We look forward to many interactions as we explore the fascinating field of neuroscience together over the next few years. This section of our website describes the Neuroscience Graduate Program requirements and expectations for the M.S. in Biomedical Science degree in Neuroscience.<\/p>\n<h3>Prospective Students<\/h3>\n<p>For those who are in the process of deciding where to attend graduate school or determining which program at UConn Health best fits your interests, this site should provide answers to some questions you may have pertaining to our educational philosophy, and research opportunities for the M.S degree program. There are no Graduate Assistantships available for this M.S program.<\/p>\n<h3>Educational Philosophy<\/h3>\n<p>Providing the fundamental training and intellectual foundation for the next generation of neuroscientists, so they can build upon and branch out from the current knowledge-base in the field of neuroscience, is a primary educational goal of the Neuroscience Graduate Program at\u00a0UConn Health. The Neuroscience Graduate Program faculty members, with their diverse interests, recognize the need to include a broad spectrum of topics in our curriculum. Although the vision, language, and approaches of molecular, cellular, and physiological neuroscientists may seem far removed from those of anatomical, systems, or behavioral neuroscientists, an understanding of each is necessary if students are to appreciate nervous system function and dysfunction fully, and ultimately, meet the challenges and demands of a future career in academia or industry.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-7863-0-0-1\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_gform_widget gform_widget panel-last-child\" data-index=\"1\" ><script>\nvar
