About Neuroscience in Dartmouth College
How does the brain give rise to the mind? How and where are memories stored? What is the biological basis of consciousness? What is the neural basis of decision making? How are mental illnesses related to changes in brain function? These are just a few of the intriguing and unresolved questions in the field of neuroscience. Neuroscience is a broad and interdisciplinary subject, drawing from psychology and biology, as well as computer science, chemistry, engineering, medicine, and other fields.
Thus, the neuroscience curriculum at Dartmouth provides breadth and depth in the core areas of neuroscience. Neuroscience is a rapidly changing field, and those changes are driven by intensive research. Dartmouth students in neuroscience gain experience in research methods through laboratory work and have the opportunity to engage in independent research in conjunction with a faculty mentor.
