NEURO 498 - Honors Research Project in Neuroscience I

6 units (fi 12)(EITHER, 0-0-6)

Individual study and research. Honors research thesis completed under the supervision of a member of the Neuroscience and Mental Health Institute (NMHI). Taken in conjunction with NEURO 499, this 6-credit course is the first part of a 12-credit program in two terms resulting in an honours research thesis in neuroscience. Students spend the term in the laboratory of a faculty member from the Neuroscience and Mental Health Institute (NMHI) to carry out a research project related to current topics and methodologies in the supervisor's area of expertise in cellular, molecular, systems, or cognitive neuroscience. During NEURO 498 (Neuroscience I), students will develop background knowledge in an area of neuroscience research, design an experimental plan (in conjunction with their supervisor) to investigate a particular research question, learn the methodologies to be used, and begin experiments to answer this research question. Completion of this course requires a written proposal summarizing background information and experimental design and methods for the project as well as an oral presentation to an examining committee. Restricted to students in the Honors program in Neuroscience. Registration must be approved by the Neuroscience and Mental Health Institute (NMHI). Prerequisite: Consent of the course coordinator.

REHAB 603 - Seminars in Rehabilitation Science

1 unit (fi 2)(EITHER, 0-1S-0)

This seminar is designed to allow students in the doctoral program to learn more about the scope of research in rehabilitation science. Students attend seminars presented by staff and/or graduate students in the Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine and other health science faculties. Rehabilitation Science PhD students must enroll in this course twice, once in each of the first two semesters of their program, for a total of 2 credit units in Rehab 603.

REHAB 606 - Essentials for Graduate Studies

1 unit (fi 2)(EITHER, 0-1S-0)

This course provides the student with foundational research knowledge and skills to accelerate their ability to be productive and successful in research endeavors.

NEURO 452 - Honors Research Project in Neuroscience

3 units (fi 6)(SECOND, 0-0-3)

Research project involving laboratory experimentation done under the supervision of a member of the Neuroscience and Mental Health Institute (NMHI). Laboratory projects may involve current topics and methodologies encountered in specific areas of cellular, molecular, systems, or cognitive neuroscience. Completion of this course requires a written report of the project and an oral presentation to an examining committee at the end of the course. Restricted to students in the Honors program in Neuroscience. Registration must be approved by the course coordinator.
