<p class="MsoPlainText">COURSE OUTLINE:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">===============<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">This is a one-year full-time or two-years part-time Masters programme, consisting of taught courses (120 credits) plus research project and dissertation (60 credits). (NOTE: the Part-time option is only available to Home / UK students). It
is designed for students with a good degree in the biological / life sciences (e.g., psychology, neuroscience, biology, medicine, etc.) or physical sciences (computer science, mathematics, statistics, physics, engineering, etc.), however, individuals with
different backgrounds but equivalent experience will also be considered. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The core contents of this course include (i) fundamentals of cognitive neuroscience (cortical and subcortical mechanisms and structures underlying cognition and behaviour, plus experimental and neuroimaging techniques), and (ii) concepts
and methods of computational modelling of biological neurons, simple neuronal circuits, and higher brain functions. Students are trained with a rich variety of computational and advanced methodological skills, taught in the four core modules of the course
(Modelling Cognitive Functions, Cognitive Neuroscience, Cortical Modelling, and Advanced Quantitative Methods). Unlike other standard computational neuroscience programmes (which focus predominantly on modelling low-level aspects of brain function), one of
the distinctive features of this course is that it includes the study of neurobiologically constrained models of cognitive processes (including, e.g., language and decision making). The final research project can be carried out in house or in collaboration
with an external partner, either from academia or industry.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">LINKS WITH INDUSTRY:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">==================<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The programme benefits from an ongoing collaborative partnership with different international companies having headquarters in the UK, the EU, and Japan. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Carrying out your final research project with one of our industry partners will enable you to acquire cutting-edge skills much in demand on the job market, providing a fast-track route towards post-master's internships and employment.<o:p></o:p></p>
