We offer an Educational Neuroscience Ph.D. Program, postdoctoral training programs, and an undergraduate major and minor in Neuroscience.
Join a world leader in educational neuroscience and gain a better understanding of how the brain learns. Deepen knowledge about developmental, cognitive, and affective processes while contributing to the design of educational interventions and policies. This program is a part of Vanderbilt's Peabody College.
Outstanding postdoctoral scholars are encouraged to apply for our training program focused on laboratory research that seeks to better understand the pathophysiological mechanisms that underlie mental illness, and translate this information into personalized therapies needed for numerous diseases.
For entry into this exciting and growing field, we offer both a major and a minor within the College of Arts and Sciences. The program explores scientific disciplines ranging from molecular biology and biophysics, to computational science and engineering, to the study of cognitive psychology and neurology. Our graduating students have been accepted to some of the most competitive post baccalaureate medical schools in the country.
