MSc Neuroscience at University of Freiburg

About

The Neuroscience Master's programme at Freiburg University unites teaching expertise from the departments of biology, engineering, and behavioural sciences and economics to offer a coherent course programme that provides the training needed by the next generation of neuroscientists. The English-taught two-year course is offered by labs from three departments and research centres, and it will deliver higher education in both the foundations of neuroscience and the latest research in the field. Our modular course structure caters to the individual backgrounds and research interests of the participants, providing theoretical training as well as practical training in the essentials of neuroscience as well as electives. Transcending the disciplines out of which neuroscience evolves, the MSc programme takes an integrated approach: incorporating skill training and education in a wide range of theoretical and experimental methods, students in our programme are encouraged to approach problems from different angles. Â Starting in October, the programme stretches over two years. The academic year in Germany is divided into two terms, which are called semesters. After having finished your first semester, having learned the foundations of neuroscience and its research methods, you will have the opportunity to select an individual research path that will cater to your individual research interests. You will be able to choose from wide range of specialisations including Computational Neuroscience, Neural Circuits and Behaviour and NeurotechnologyÂ and create your individual curriculum composed of different courses. The newly established programme builds on numerous well-established neuroscience activities in teaching and research that until recently were distributed across the participating institutions, providing students with training from the Bachelor's level to the PhD level. KEY POINTS: InterdisciplinaryÂ andÂ international (English-taught) Combined experimental and theoretical training in neuroscience Individual study programme with many elective courses to choose from Electives cover topics such asÂ computational neuroscience,Â neural circuits and behaviourÂ and neurotechnology Joint programme of the Department of Biology, Department of EngineeringÂ and Department of Behavioural and Economic Sciences State-of-the art neuroscience facilitiesÂ atÂ one of Germanyâ€™s top universities Historic university town with a vibrant student life and extraordinary possibilities for leisure activities
