Course Overview

In this course, you will develop a detailed understanding of the historical and contemporary concepts and theories underpinning our current understanding of human brain-behavior, innovative neuroscience methods, and their application to understanding brain function, and the core cognitive and affective processes and associated neurology. You will also be equipped with specialized analytical skills that will allow you to assess and interpret neuropsychological function in healthy and clinical populations and will be able to report research evidence as a result. Whilst studying either one year full-time or two years part-time, you will be taught by a multidisciplinary team of experts including psychologists, psychophysiologists, neuroimaging researchers, and clinical scientists. The academics teaching the course are making advances in cognitive and clinical neuroscience and will lead with their research so you will receive the most up-to-date knowledge in this field. You will learn innovative neuroscience methods and gain hands-on experience with our fMRI and MRI scanners to study brain function in health and disease. You will also have opportunities to interact with renowned local, national, and international experts in the field through Brunel's research center, the Centre for Cognitive Neuroscience (CCN).
