国际学生入学条件
600 TOEFL Minimum score
100 TOEFLI Minimum score The minimum acceptable IELTS score is 7. Students wishing to pursue a PhD in Neuroscience need to have a strong math and science background with a minimum of a Bachelor's degree (a Master's degree is not required). Applicants need to submit an application on the WSU Graduate School website to be considered. Application documents must include:
College transcripts (unofficial acceptable for initial review–upon admittance official transcripts are required)
Three (3) letters of reference
Resume or curriculum vita
Personal statement describing why you are interested in studying neuroscience (clearly define which faculty mentor (minimum of 3) you are interested in working with and explain why). If admitted to WSU you will have the ability to refine your choice of faculty mentors while doing lab rotations. Included in the personal statement describe an achievement that you are proud of and discuss how you reached your goal, and any obstacles you had to overcome to reach it. Conversely, tell us about a time when you didn't achieve a goal and what you learned from the experience (maximum word length is 350 words).
Writing Statement: Describe a major finding in neuroscience and/or biomedicine over the past five (5) years, and explain why you think it was important (maximum word length of 350 words). Please cite your work at the end. Citations do not count in the 350 word length count. Writing statements over the maximum word length may disqualify your application.

课程简介
Neuroscience is the study of the nervous system from elementary molecular events to integrative outputs such as behavior and autonomic control. The PhD program in Neuroscience at WSU includes classroom discussions of primary neuroscience literature, courses designed specifically to teach students scientific reasoning and training in proposal writing and oral presentation skills. However, the bulk of the program is spent pursuing a scientific question that includes the design and completion of an original investigation. Students develop their project under the expert guidance of well-funded and renowned neuroscientists on the faculty at WSU. Members of the graduate faculty in the Program in Neuroscience come from multiple departments, colleges, and campuses from across the University, thus giving students a broad selection of mentors and potential topics for their thesis research.<br><br>The study of molecular and cellular events underlying control of development and plasticity of cells in the nervous system. Research focuses on how disruption of these pathways underlies complex neurological and psychiatric disorders.
