Overview

Neuroscience is an interdisciplinary field that draws from a number of scientific disciplines including medicine, biological sciences, psychology, physics, chemistry, mathematics and engineering, and beyond with the nervous system serving as the common focus. Neuroscience is one of the most rapidly advancing fields of research and training.

At the University of Miami, over 50 faculty members from 13 departments on three campuses participate in undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral training.

They engage in neuroscience research that accounts for more than 20% of the University’s federally sponsored research dollars. While the home of the major is in the College of Arts & Sciences, the teaching faculty and Steering Committee come from several schools, including the Miller School of Medicine. The College of Arts & Sciences Department of biology and psychology are home to many of our faculty as well.

Mission

In accordance with the goals of the University of Miami, the mission of the interdisciplinary undergraduate neuroscience major is to acquire, advance, and disseminate knowledge within the neural and bio-behavioral sciences. In order to achieve these goals, the Neuroscience Program seeks a balance among several academic endeavors, including basic scientific research, applied research, undergraduate teaching, graduate teaching, professional training and development, and service to the community.
