Welcome

Master of Science in Neuroscience

Thank you for your interest in the Master of Science in Neuroscience Program in the Department of Biology at the University of Hartford.     The Masters of science in Neuroscience at the University of Hartford is interdisciplinary in nature, providing experiences at the interface of biology, psychology, and other natural sciences. The program is designed to meet the needs of both full-time and part- time non-traditional students with most courses and laboratories offered in the evenings.
    In addition, the Neuroscience Master’s Program offers two options. The thesis option requires a six-credit thesis and is designed for students who are interested in research positions or who plan to pursue doctoral training in the future. The non-thesis option requires a 3-credit research paper where a particular applied/clinical interest is integrated with coursework taken. This option is intended as an appropriate terminal degree for students pursuing advancement in non-research positions.
    The MS in Neuroscience may be completed on either a full- or part-time basis.
