The Master of Science in Integrative Neuroscience curriculum includes an extensive integrated overview of neuroscience, statistics, experimental design, and technical approaches. The standard master’s curriculum can be complemented by a laboratory research track or the Concentration in Biomedical Science Policy & Advocacy.
This program is offered through Biomedical Graduate Education (BGE) at Georgetown University School of Medicine.
Students must complete 30 credits of coursework, including 19 credits of required courses and 11 credits of elective courses. Elective courses can be chosen to complement the core curriculum and the research internship or policy capstone, and can be selected from other GUMC departments. If there is a course of particular interest to a student that does not appear on the curriculum elective list, they may submit a request to the Program Director to designate the course as an approved elective.
