Neural and Behavioral Sciences Program
Over the past several decades, the interdisciplinary field of neuroscience has emerged at the interface of psychology and biology. Broadly speaking, neuroscience encompasses the study of the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system and its control of sensation, movement, thought, emotion and behavior in a variety of species. The Neural and Behavioral Sciences (NBS) concentration is intended for students who wish to focus their studies in the area of neuroscience. The concentration is open to students majoring in biology or psychology at either Haverford or Bryn Mawr. Students who choose the concentration must fulfill all requirements for the major department (biology or psychology) as well as taking additional courses with a neuroscience focus in biology and psychology.
