Of the four Neuroscience courses required in the specialization areas, three 3-credit courses are mandatory. One course may, however, be taken from the 2-credit courses offered by the Lewis Katz School of Medicine, which ensures that students have a wider breadth of course selection in the certificate program. When students select a 2-credit course, they are limited to taking one such course and, to achieve the 15 credits required to earn the certificate, must take an additional academic term of NSCI 9381 Readings in Neuroscience for 1 credit.
