Baldwin-Wallace Neuroscience Program

Mission and Goals





In keeping with the liberal arts tradition at Baldwin-Wallace College, the interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program provides our students with an opportunity to explore another dimension of our humanity - the chemical and biological substrate of all our mental and behavioral faculties.


The program is designed to:

1. provide our students with knowledge, skills, and experiences relevant to the study of the brain;

2. develop skills in neuroscience methods, data acquisition and the presentation of scientific findings;

3. teach students to think beyond single-discipline borders when they attempt to solve scientific problems;

4. encourage students specializing in different traditional disciplines to develop the communicative and social skills required to work together, in teams, on complex scientific problems, and;

5. encourage scientific creativity and independent research.
