• Bachelor of Arts in Neuroscience at Princeton University is offered as a 4-year teaching program.
  • This bachelor program has a co-op work option.
  • In order to be eligible to participate in a full-time Co-op Work Term, students must meet the GPA requirements.
  • The student to faculty ratio is 18:1 which bridges the gap between faculty and students.
  • Some of the main courses that students will study in this program are:
    • Neural pathways
    • Neuronal signaling
    • Neurobiology of disease
    • Nervous system development
    • Integrative functions and systems
  • Students in this discipline are expected to understand the basic principles and approaches of modern neuroscience.
  • The concentration provides an opportunity for the serious study of molecular, cellular, developmental, and systems neuroscience as it interfaces with cognitive and behavioral research.
  • Since modern neuroscience is relying increasingly on quantitatively sophisticated methods and theory, students are also expected to gain competency in, physics, mathematics, and computation.
  • By offering a combination of courses and interdisciplinary research, students who complete the neuroscience concentration will be highly qualified to pursue graduate work at the best neuroscience, psychology, or biology graduate programs and will also have completed, in large part, the background requirements to enter medical or veterinary school.
  • Career positions may include: 
    • Biologist/technician
    • Business
    • Conservation
    • Education
    • Health care
    • Natural resources, etc with an average salary of 35,450 USD per year.
