Program Description:
Loyola university has many programs and faculty studying the nervous system as a basis for behavior. Many of these programs house some of the world's leading neuroscientists. Now these programs and faculty are available to undergraduates. The Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Minor provides students course work, laboratory training and experience (in a state-of-the-art neuroscience teaching facility), and exposure to the many neuroscience programs at the Lake Shore and Medical School campuses. The Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Minor brings Loyola undergraduates to the Medical Center and expertise from the Medical Center to the Lake Shore Campus. Involvement in the Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Minor might provide answers to some of the fundamental questions in Neuroscience, and it will allow you to directly study these questions at Loyola in three specialized courses: The Seminar (NEUR 300), and a 2-semester lab sequence (NEUR 301 & 302) emphasizing systems-level neurobiology!
