Biomedical Neuroscience is an interdisciplinary programme executed by lectures from natural science institutes as well as from clinicians and clinical scientists. The aim of the programme is an intensive education in the field of basic neuroscience and neuropsychiatric diseases. This includes both the theoretical background and the technical skills for commonly used experimental approaches in basic and clinical research. Teaching is performed in a combination of theory and hands-on classes and includes project-oriented scientific work in the laboratories of the participation institutes. Furthermore, data analysis, scientific ethics, management and communication are part of the curriculum.
The qualification profile of the graduates includes an in depth understanding of brain function and structure, from molecules and cells to large-scale circuits, behaviour and the mechanisms and treatment strategies of different neuropsychiatric diseases. Through their lab rotations and practical scientific work, the students will become familiar with the most relevant technologies for basic and clinical research and with their capabilities in the field of neuroscience. Students who successfully complete the programme will be able to evaluate scientific data and apply appropriate statistical tests. Our graduates will enter a growing market – so the career prospects of the graduates of the MSc BmN programme will be extremely good in basic academic research, clinical settings and in industry.
