Why study at ?

  • Researchers in Nijmegen combine new techniques for electrophysiological and anatomical measurements of connectivity and activation with data analysis and the experimental application of these techniques. This is done in studies of cognition in not just humans but also non-human primates and rodents.
  • Exceptional students who choose this specialisation have the opportunity to do a?double degree programme?with either Neuroscience or Artificial Intelligence. This will take three instead of two years.
  • This competitive programme provides a sound balance of theory and practice. Our selective approach guarantees excellence, especially during the research training period.
  • And the advantages of the Master?s programme in Cognitive Neuroscience?in general.
