神经科学学士学位（预科和专业培训年）

我们的神经科学学位包括预科和专业培训年，为期五年。预科课程涵盖生物学，化学和数学的关键主题，并获得生物科学学院提供的任何学科的理学学士学位。预科课程是为那些没有足够科学背景的学生而设计的，它将为您提供在一年级及以后的课程中蓬勃发展所需的知识和理解。在我们的神经科学计划中，您将使用从神经细胞的生物化学和生理学到心理学家对心理机制的调查等方法探讨这些问题。作为本课程的一部分，您将在大学，临床或工业研究实验室或其他获得批准的机构中度过第四年。这提供了一个获得第一手专业研究经验的绝好机会，并且已证明可以大大提高您
Our Neuroscience degree with Preliminary Year and Professional Training Year is a five-year course. The Preliminary Year covers key topics in Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics and leads to a BSc in any of the subjects offered by the School of Biosciences. The preliminary year is designed for students who don't have a sufficient background in science, and it will provide you with the knowledge and understanding needed to thrive in the year one curriculum and beyond. On our Neuroscience programme, you will explore these questions, using approaches that range from the biochemistry and physiology of the nerve cells to a psychologist's investigation of the machinery of the mind. As part of this course you will spend your fourth year on placement at an academic, clinical or industrial research laboratory, or other approved establishment. This offers a great opportunity to gain first-hand professional research experience, and it has been shown to greatly enhance your subsequent employment prospects. Many placements are in the UK, but in recent years we have had an increasing number of students taking up placements in international locations, including Southeast Asia, South Africa, Germany, Italy, Australia, Madagascar, and the USA. <br><br>Career prospects - Our Neuroscience qualification offers strong training for research scientists and a significant proportion of our graduates go on to study PhD or master's degrees. Many others have successful careers in science-related fields such as medical and scientific research, biological and pharmaceutical industries, healthcare, toxicology, medical or scientific publishing, and science journalism, amongst many others. Through your degree you will also develop transferable skills that are attractive to a wide range of employers in more general areas of industry, commerce, public service, administration and management. A degree in Neuroscience can also act as a stepping stone to further training in professional areas including teaching, medicine, dentistry, nursing, veterinary science and accounting. In 2016/17, 93% of the School's graduates who were available for work reported they were in employment and/or further study within six months of graduating. Experience has shown that students who have completed a Professional Training Year are particularly well-placed to obtain degree-related employment at the end of their studies.<br><br>Full time with sandwich year
