Northwestern’s Neuroscience BA bridges cellular neurobiology, cognitive psychology, and computational modeling to unravel brain mechanisms underlying perception, emotion, and disease. Students master electrophysiology, neuroimaging, and data science while conducting research in labs investigating memory consolidation, stroke recovery, and neural engineering. Interdisciplinary electives link neuroethics, artificial intelligence, and music cognition. Clinical shadowing at Northwestern Medicine sharpens translational insight, preparing graduates for medical school, biotech R&D, neuro-consulting, and graduate programs.
