专业概况
在这里学什么?
The Institute offers a graduate program that is designed for students who desire a broad training in various experimental and theoretical aspects of neuroscience while maintaining a research program that may be more specialized. This can be achieved by drawing on the expertise of specialists (members of the Institute) from various departments throughout the University who have research interests in neuroscience. The graduate program in Neuroscience offers both degrees of PhD and MSc through thesis research.
Program Requirements
Students are required to complete a minimum of ★6 in coursework and a thesis.
Coursework
The only exception to course requirements for the MSc degree would be for clinical trainees such as medical residents, who, in consultation with and approval of the graduate coordinator, may be exempted. MSc students have the option, in consultation with their program supervisor, to complete a lab rotation course, typically during the first year. Students can choose either NEURO 500 (two terms; ★6) or NEURO 501 (one term; ★3). NEURO 500 involves rotations through three laboratories during the first year. Each rotation involves two months of research experience (six months in total). One rotation may be in the laboratory of the primary supervisor. Although this course is ★6, an additional lecture-based, graduate-level course will be required to meet the course requirements if students register in NEURO 500. NEURO 501 involves rotation through one laboratory taken outside of the laboratory of the primary supervisor. Students, in consultation with their supervisory committees, may also select courses in other areas important to their research programs. Students will be expected to attend weekly Neuroscience seminars.
Thesis
Registration in 900-level THES
Language Requirement
No language other than English is required for the MSc.
Residence Requirement
The minimum period of residence is two four-month terms of full-time attendance at the University of Alberta.
Length of Program
The time required to complete the MSc will vary with the individual candidate, but the normal period is about two years to both complete the coursework (1st year) and benefit from the research training (1st and 2nd years).
The maximum time to complete the thesis-based MSc program as set by the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research is four years.
