Overview
About Interdisciplinary Neuroscience at the University of Rhode Island
The University of Rhode Island’s graduate Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program (INP) provides students with expertise from researchers and entrepreneurs who are conducting cutting-edge research about the physiological bases of behavior and who are developing solutions for the most debilitating brain disorders, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, epilepsy, schizophrenia, and more.
The INP graduate program offers three options: a Master of Science (M.S.), Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree, or a Certificate in Neuroscience. Please note that the Master of Science offers a thesis or a non-thesis option. The thesis program requires students to match with a mentor and conduct research (resulting in a thesis), while the non-thesis program does not require a mentor match or thesis, consequently the acceptance rate tends to be higher in the non-thesis program.
