UVA’s BA in Neuroscience brings together biological, cognitive, and behavioral sciences to examine the structure and function of the nervous system. Students study neuroanatomy, brain imaging, neuropharmacology, and computational neuroscience alongside psychology and research design. The degree emphasizes interdisciplinary connections and prepares students for medical school, research, or careers in mental health, biotech, and public health. Through labs, electives, and thesis opportunities, students gain insight into how the brain shapes perception, emotion, and decision-making.
