Course overview

This MSc provides a comprehensive foundation in translational neuroscience while equipping students with essential data science skills for modern research. You will develop the ability to critically evaluate and analyse complex biological datasets using tools such as statistical modelling, machine learning and scientific programming. These skills are applied in an extended data-driven research project, undertaken with one of our world-leading neuroscience teams, giving you the chance to work with real data and contribute to cutting-edge discoveries. 

Core subject areas include molecular and cellular neuroscience, neurodegenerative disease, and behavioural and systems neuroscience. Teaching is delivered through a blended approach, combining online lectures, bespoke tutorials, laboratory visits and practical exercises, all supported by the University of Exeter’s electronic learning environment (ELE). The programme consists of six core modules, one optional module, and a 60-credit dissertation, and can be studied full time over one year or part time over two.
