With close faculty mentorship and access to cutting-edge research opportunities, students are well prepared for careers in biomedical research, healthcare, and advanced graduate or professional study.

Tulane University offers a master of science degree in Neuroscience for students with a baccalaureate degree. Students in the master's program take courses and gain experiences relevant to their interests in Neuroscience and related fields. The mission of the M.S. program is to prepare students for admission to doctoral programs in the neurosciences, careers in neuroscience-related fields, and for admission to medical and other pre-health (e.g., Physician's Assistant, Physical Therapy, etc.) schools.
