The Neuroscience program introduces you to the brain, how it functions, and the consequences of its dysfunction due to abnormal development, disease, or injury. Its scope ranges from molecular and cellular biology to complex animal and human neurological systems. You\u2019ll study the effects of the nervous system on behavior, cognition, and emotion and also dive into brain activity modeling through artificial intelligence and computer science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This program is interdisciplinary in nature and designed to be flexible, preparing you equally well for direct entry into the workforce or the pursuit of graduate or professional studies, including medical school. Graduates of this program can expect to pursue careers in research, academia, healthcare, biotechnology, data analysis, policy, and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-in-the-neuroscience-program-you-will\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">In the Neuroscience program, you will:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Demonstrate knowledge of fundamental neuroscientific concepts, theories, and methods, as well as the conceptual, theoretical, and methodological tools of neuroscience-related disciplines (biology, psychology, or computational neuroscience) as applied within and beyond the broader enterprise of neuroscience.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Critique scientific, clinical, and philosophical literature for its impact on neuroscientific inquiry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Design scientifically rigorous and ethical research.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Communicate effectively about scientific and technical concepts, questions, and information.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Articulate the metaphysical, moral, and societal complexities that arise as we develop a unified neuroscientific understanding of mind, brain, and behavior.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Appreciate the value and challenges of integrating the multiple disciplinary perspectives that make up neuroscientific research and practice.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"butler-two-column-quote alignfull has-no-block-start-margin wp-block-butler-two-column-quote\">\n\t\n\n<div class=\"butler-two-column-quote-item is-butler-two-column-quote-media-right wp-block-butler-two-column-quote-item\">\n\t<figure class=\"butler-two-column-quote-item-media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"butler-two-column-quote-item-media-image\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.butler.edu\/www\/sites\/12\/2023\/07\/08102359\/Alyssa-McKillip-SR-55-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Woman standing against a stone wall outside.\" style=\"object-position: 50.00% 50.00%\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<div class=\"butler-two-column-quote-item-content\">\n\t\t\n\n<p class=\"butler-two-column-quote-item-kicker wp-block-paragraph\">Current Student Profile<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"butler-two-column-quote-item-quote wp-block-paragraph\">Alyssa McKillip, a current Psychology and Neuroscience student says, &#8220;Neuroscience at Butler truly fosters a community of excited students who want to engage in continuous learning, discussion, and understanding.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"butler-two-column-quote-item-attribution wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons butler-two-column-quote-item-cta is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\"><\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"content-block wp-block-butler-content-block\">\n\t<div class=\"content-block-container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"content-block-layout content-block-layout-menu-less\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"content-block-menu-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"content-block-content-container is-layout-constrained\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<h2 id=\"h-neuroscience-faqs\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Neuroscience FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"butler-accordion-container wp-block-butler-accordion-container\" data-allow-multiple=\"false\" style=\"--butler-accordion-title-bg-hover: ;\">\n\n<div class=\"butler-accordion-item wp-block-butler-accordion-item\">\n\t<div class=\"butler-accordion-header\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"butler-accordion-title wp-block-butler-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"butler-accordion-toggle\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\tIs Neuroscience a STEM major?\t\t\t\t<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Open<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t<\/h2>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"butler-accordion-item-content\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, Neuroscience is a STEM major.
