Biomedical Sciences: Neurobiology
Master
Neurobiology is a relative young field of study on the cutting edge of multiple disciplines such as biology, psychology, philosophy and computer science.
The Master's programme Neurobiology is for those students who are fascinated by the functioning of the human brain. There are four specifically designed tracks. All four of them are organised by UvA research groups specialised in exactly these topics, creating an atmosphere of research based education.
These tracks are:
Molecular Neurosciences
Physiology of Synapses and Networks
Psychopharmacology and Pathophysiology
Cognitive Neurobiology and Clinical Neurophysiology
Why UvA?
The cluster Neurobiology at the University of Amsterdam is part of the Master's programme Biomedical Sciences. Consequently, the brain is approached from a biomedical point of view, from the molecule to the mind. The support of several university institutes such as the Swammerdam Institute of Life Sciences (SILS-CNS) and other neurobiological institutes like the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience (NIN) and the AMC guarantee excellent courses and internships.

The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) is a student-centred system based on the student workload required to achieve the objectives of a programme of study. Its aim is to facilitate the recognition of study periods undertaken by mobile students through the transfer of credits. The ECTS is based on the principle that 60 credits are equivalent to the workload of full-time student during one academic year.
