The PhD in Neurosciences consists of two parts. The first, the curricular year, is a propaedeutic and probationary period where the student acquires knowledge on fundamental subjects in Neurosciences and 'soft skills' necessary for scientific investigation, scientific method, and contacts with a wide range of teachers and research fields for an informed and mature choice of the experimental project to be developed in subsequent years. The second part corresponds to the development of original research, under supervision, that is expected to lead to new knowledge in the field and should be published in recognized international Journals.
To provide the student with an in-depth understanding of issues related to Neurosciences.
To promote acquisition of skills allowing the student to carry out scientific research in a progressively autonomous way, through dynamic and integrated training that encourages the interrelationship between the different areas of knowledge in the field of Neurosciences
To promote development of abilities so that the student will be able to conceive, design and carry out relevant original research, critically analyse of new concepts, communicate with their peers, as well as to develop means to promote technological progress.
To promote the development of capacities for publishing scientific findings during the execution of their PhD project, which must be published in specialized journals of international dissemination and of recognized scientific merit.
To encourage the student to carry out some specific tasks of the project in collaboration with other research groups, in order to foster internationalization of the work, as well as the progressive autonomy of the student.
