Overview

The Neuroscience course offered at The University of Manchester also covers new technological advances that have been at the forefront of recent breakthroughs in the field of neuroscience, including biomedical imaging, genetic manipulation and functional recording at the molecular, cellular and tissue levels.

There have also been major advances in our understanding of the biology of higher brain function and the pathogenesis of a variety of neurological disorders, such as mental health disorders and neurodegenerative disease eg Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.

You will study a range of topics during the course, including pharmacology, physiology, motor systems, sensory systems and more, with the opportunity to choose optional units in particular areas of interest.

Career opportunities

The graduates of this course go into a range of careers. Around one-third of graduates work in scientific research and development, which may require significant postgraduate study, usually a PhD.

The rest of the graduates go into a diverse range of careers, including teaching or communicating science, as well as careers unrelated to biological sciences including management, finance, marketing and the civil service.

Some of the graduates progress into laboratory-based careers in clinical or technical roles that do not involve research.
