Meet the faculty, student SAC (student representatives) and NSCI majors from sophomores through seniors, to hear first hand what neuroscience is all about. You can learn what courses you might take or how to major in NSCI, and also about the opportunities for research, internships, etc. Students will talk about their own experiences and current projects, faculty will talk about their courses and research, and this is a great opportunity to get answers to any questions you might have from either students or faculty.

Brain Discovery Day A series of exercises and demonstrations on how our brains work, by NSCI students and faculty, for local high school students and interested others .
