How does the brain give rise to behaviour, emotion, and cognition? What happens when neural systems malfunction — and how can we intervene? Can we connect the dots from molecules to behavior to minds?
✔ Study the brain from molecules to behaviour to mind across three research tracks
✔ Benefit from an interdisciplinary programme taught by experts from three faculties
✔ Work in small cohorts with a strong academic and social support network
✔ Shape your own path: specialise deeply or explore across neuroscience fields
The research master Behavioural and Cognitive Neurosciences (BCN) at the University of Groningen is an international programme that trains you to become an independent neuroscientist. Combining interdisciplinary breadth with deep specialisation, this two-year MSc offers you the freedom to build your own scientific profile. Whether you want to zoom in on molecular mechanisms, understand cognition and modelling, explore behavioural and physiological processes — or move from one to the other.
The BCN programme is organised around three distinct tracks:
Na studia magisterskie mogą kandydować wszyscy, którzy ukończyli studia licencjackie lub inżynierskie (studia I stopnia), studia magisterskie lub studiują na ostatnim roku studiów I-stopnia. Studia, które planujesz powinny mieć zbliżony profil do tych obecnych lub ukończonych, ponieważ w procesie rekrutacji kluczowa jest ich zgodność programowa.
WAŻNE! Opłata rekrutacyjna – uniwersytet pobiera opłatę rekrutacyjną w wysokości 100 EUR, którą należy uiścić przy składaniu aplikacji (po wysłaniu formularza Kastu zostaniesz poinformowany o sposobie jej uiszczenia). TUTAJ znajdziesz więcej informacji na temat tej opłaty.

A Bachelor's degree in the Life Sciences, (Molecular) Biology, Medicine, Artificial Intelligence, Psychology or related programmes. The Admissions Board determines whether the content of the previous degree programme meets the admission requirements.
The BCN research master is selective. Selection will be based on academic performance, motivation, and extracurricular activities.
As a graduate of this programme, you can work as a researcher, both in the academic world and other fields. Because of their multi-disciplinary training, graduates of this degree positively distinguish themselves: you can easily grasp the bigger picture and are able to familiarise yourself with new fields and methodologies quickly.
