Perspectives on the NSBH Major

(1 Credit Hour) · Undergraduate

The purpose of this one-credit seminar is to offer students the opportunity to explicitly consider the self in the context of the discipline, and use this anchoring developed during the first part of the term to explore the myriad opportunities that exist across the major and the University in the second half of the term. In other words, the seminar's design guides students through experiential and interoceptive reflection, creating insight into a lens through which to gauge curricular and career opportunities. The course format will offer opportunities for reflection, invite consideration of where there is opportunity to apply your understanding of neuroscience to self, other, community, and culture, introduce information about what you can expect in your major, and offer windows into what the field of neuroscience can encompass. Through active participation, you will work to apply neuroscientific and curricular information to your personal formation, curricular, campus and career goals.
