The MSci is similar in content to BSc Neuroscience but includes a placement year in industry, or at an overseas academic institution, during which you will undertake an assessed research project. Past students have really enjoyed this element of the course. We have had students study in America, Australia and mainland Europe. Others have stayed in the UK and worked at companies including Syganture. Through the research project, you will improve your academic and research skills as well as develop transferable employability skills such as time management, communication and flexibility.
