About

The Faculty of Neuroscience at Texas A&M offers a wide variety of interdisciplinary study programs that can be tailored to suit individual student needs in neuroscience training as part of the M.S. and Ph.D. degree programs of conventional departments. At Texas A&M University, there is a special opportunity for collaboration among scientists studying different areas of neuroscience in five colleges (Agriculture, Liberal Arts, Medicine, Science and Veterinary Medicine). Individual programs can be designed with emphasis on research training in areas such as molecular neurobiology, neuroanatomy, developmental neurobiology, neurochemistry, neuroendocriniology, neurogenetics, neuorpharmacology, neurotoxicology, neurophysiology, physiological psychology, and ethology.

Over 60 graduate students and 14 postdoctoral trainees are involved in neuroscience research at Texas A&M University and Health Science Center. See Graduate Program for additional information.

Undergraduates can obtain a minor in Neuroscience.

Resources

The faculty bring in over $41 million in extramural funding (see Research) and host a weekly seminar series.
