Bachelor
of Neuroscience Studies (BS)
School of Science and
Engineering
Atlantic International University
The Bachelor of Neuroscience Studies (BS)
program prepares the students to enter an
exciting and growing field in which biology,
psychology, biochemistry, computer science,
and other disciplines work together to unravel
the mysteries of the nervous system. The
Bachelor of Neuroscience Studies (BS) program
is offered online via distance learning.
After evaluating both academic record and
life experience, AIU staff working in conjunction
with Faculty and Academic Advisors will
assist students in setting up a custom-made
program, designed on an individual basis.
This flexibility to meet student needs is
seldom found in other distance learning
programs. Our online program does not require
all students to take the same subjects/courses,
use the same books, or learning materials.
Instead, the online Bachelor of Neuroscience
Studies (BS) curriculum is designed individually
by the student and academic advisor. It
specifically addresses strengths and weaknesses
with respect to market opportunities in
the student’s major and intended field
of work. Understanding that industry and
geographic factors should influence the
content of the curriculum instead of a standardized
one-fits-all design is the hallmark of AIU’s
unique approach to adult education. This
philosophy addresses the dynamic and constantly
changing environment of working professionals
by helping adult students in reaching their
professional and personal goals within the
scope of the degree program.
Important: Below is an example of the topics
or areas you may develop and work on during
your studies. By no means is it a complete
or required list as AIU programs do not
follow a standardized curriculum. It is
meant solely as a reference point and example.

Neuroscience
Studies
Neuroscience is the scientific study of
the nervous system. Traditionally, neuroscience
has been seen as a branch of biology. Nevertheless,
it is currently an interdisciplinary science
that involves other disciplines such as
psychology, computer science, statistics,
physics, philosophy, and medicine. As a
result, the scope of neuroscience has broadened
to include different approaches used to
study the molecular, developmental, structural,
functional, evolutionary, computational,
and medical aspects of the nervous system.
The techniques used by neuroscientists have
also expanded enormously, from biophysical
and molecular studies of individual nerve
cells to imaging of perceptual and motor
tasks in the brain. Recent theoretical advances
in neuroscience have also been aided by
the use of computational modeling of neural
networks.
