BSc (Hons) Neuroscience (Foundation Entry). The University of Central Lancashire. UK

Description

On our Neuroscience (Foundation Entry) course you’ll take a multidisciplinary approach to studying how the brain and nervous system work. You’ll receive a solid foundation in science as you develop your knowledge of how we understand and treat neurological disorders and diseases. Neuroscience is a truly modern and multidisciplinary subject which seeks to understand the complexity of our nervous system. Foundation entry degree courses like this one are ideal if you’ve got the ability to study for a degree but you don’t have the qualifications needed to directly enter the full honours degree programme. During the foundation year we’ll equip you with the essential knowledge and understanding of theoretical and practical science skills you’ll need to succeed at degree level. Enhance your practical skills with a variety of hands-on Biology and Chemistry laboratory sessions and Physics workshops. Neuroscience is literally the 'science of the brain' and you’ll develop knowledge from a wide range of disciplines including biochemistry, physiology, pharmacology and psychology. You can use this foundation year as an opportunity to get to know other foundation students on different science-based degree programmes.
