Programmes

NTU Neuroscience Ph.D. Programme

The goal of our Programme is to develop outstanding young Neuroscientists who receive in-depth training in both the conceptual foundations and the most advanced technologies of the field. Our emphasis is on multidisciplinary training: our students will come from a broad range of academic disciplines that can include – but are not limited to - cellular/molecular biology, neurobiology, chemistry, engineering, computational sciences, artificial intelligence, cognitive science (including psychology and linguistics), medicine and other areas such as biophysics and mathematics. The Neuroscience Ph.D. Programme includes more than 80 faculty in 10 different schools from throughout NTU. Close interactions with these faculty, as well as their graduate student peers from a wide range of disciplines, create rich training and research opportunities for our students. Our students also are eligible to attend classes at NUS, further diversifying their training experiences and intellectual foundations. Via such training experiences, Neuroscience Ph.D. students will receive exceptionally broad training that will be extraordinary preparation for their future scientific

pursuits.

Programme highlights:

Inspiring Coursework – Students will take interactive classes from some of the world’s leaders in the Neuroscience field. These classes will include both core modules as well as a wide range of elective modules (see Programmes below). A total of 18 academic units of coursework is required (typically each module is 3 academic units).
Valuable Lab Rotation Experience - Students can complete up to 3 rotations in the laboratories of any Neuroscience Programme faculty member. This will provide exposure to different conceptual approaches and experimental techniques, as well provide experience that will help identify their Ph.D. mentor and home laboratory. These rotations are optional, so that students who have already identified a faculty mentor are not required to participate in rotations.
Cutting-edge Research – After completing their coursework and laboratory rotations, Neuroscience Ph.D. students decide on a research project and defend their Ph.D. thesis. Research projects can be done in the laboratories of any Neuroscience Programme faculty member and will be identified by the student, in close consultation with their faculty mentor. Students have the option of performing research projects that span more than one research field and benefit from mentoring by faculty in different disciplines.
Efficient, Cost-Free Research Training – Full-time Neuroscience students will receive their Ph.D. within 4 years. All students are eligible for full financial support, including payment of their tuition and a stipend to cover their living expenses.

The overall structure of the curriculum for students in the Neuroscience Ph.D. Programme

is the following:

Coursework to be carried during the first 1.5 years (minimum of 18 academic units in Neuroscience-related coursework);
Rotations in up to 3 different laboratories, across NTU colleges and schools (concurrent with coursework), that is completed within the first year;
Focused research, which starts during the first 1-1.5 years, in parallel with coursework and after concluding any laboratory rotations. Research becomes the primary activity in years 2-4 after completing the Qualifying Examination.
Coursework - Given that students enter with diverse academic backgrounds, the initial goal of the Neuroscience Ph.D. Programme is to expose students to a wide spectrum of neurosciencerelated fields. Thus, during their first year in the Programme, students will take modules from a shared core curriculum prior to taking more advanced elective coursework in their area of research specialization:

To ensure a broad-based education, core modules are divided into two different themes; students are required to take at least 2 modules from one theme and another module from the other theme. These themes and their constituent core modules (each 3 academic units) are shown here:

Theme A: Neuroscience based on biology or psychology

Introduction to Neuroscience: Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience (MD9104)

Introduction to Neuroscience: Neural Systems and Behaviour (MD9108)

Introduction to Neuropsychology

Theme B: Neuroscience based on engineering and/or technology

Engineering Approaches to Neuroscience

Computational/AI Neuroscience

Experimental Techniques in Neuroscience

After taking core modules, students complete their coursework requirements by taking 3 additional modules from the list shown below, in addition to taking a communication course and participating in a 3-minute Thesis Symposium. Students entering with a M.Sci. degree are eligible to receive credit for up to 9 academic units for courses taken during their M.Sci. training.

Laboratory rotations - Neuroscience Ph.D. students are encouraged to complete up to 3 laboratory rotations. The goals of these rotations are to provide exposure to different conceptual approaches and experimental techniques, as well as to expose students to several laboratories to help them identify their Ph.D. mentor and home laboratory. Each lab rotation should last approximately 2 months and should be completed during the first year in the Programme, These

rotations are optional, so that students who have already identified a mentor are not required to participate in rotations. At the beginning of each academic year, a list of mentors willing to host rotation students will be complied and this list will be provided to aid selection of laboratory rotations.

Research project and mentoring – After completing coursework and laboratory rotations, a Neuroscience Ph.D. student will decide on a research project and successfully complete their Qualifying Examination by the end of their second year. Students should plan to defend their Ph.D. thesis within 4 years. A research project will be identified by the student, in close consultation with their mentor. Students have the option of performing research projects that span more than one research field and benefit from mentoring by faculty in different disciplines. The mentor will also have primary responsibility for supervising the research progress of a student. All Neuroscience Ph.D. Programme students, along with their mentors, will be expected to identify a Thesis Advisory Committee that will interact regularly and meaningfully with each student to provide academic and scientific guidance. The Director of the Neuroscience Ph.D.

Programme will provide initial guidance to students prior to selection of a faculty mentor and Thesis Advisory Committee.

Faculty Members

Dozens of faculty members are engaged in neuroscience research in numerous schools across the NTU campus; the list below includes more than 80 faculty who are at NTU and are eager to serve as mentors for Neuroscience Ph.D. Programme students. These faculty provide a very broad and strong pool of teachers for Neuroscience modules as well as being prospective research mentors for Neuroscience Ph.D. Programme students.
