    About

    The Master's programme in "Social, Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience" (or "SCAN") is an English-taught Master of Science programme that is offered by the department of Education and Psychology at the Freie Universität of Berlin. The programme can be subdivided into three foci: Social, Cognitive and Affective neuroscience. By providing students with an opportunity to gain theoretical knowledge of all three foci as well as methodological competency, this integrative and research-focused programme aims to provide students with the skills to qualify them for a career in applied research in the fields of general and neurocognitive psychology, biological psychology and social, cognitive and affective neuroscience or other related working environments. On the one hand, this entails teaching of background knowledge in a variety of domains, such as perception, learning, memory, decision making, empathy, and language, with a particular emphasis on current research and developments. On the other hand, this entails teaching and applied learning of a large array of methodological skills, including planning and programming of neurocognitive experiments, conducting experiments using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), electroencephalography (EEG), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), and the statistical analysis of experimental data.
