Please check the Sheffield Hallam University website for the latest course information.
Course summary:

• Explore brain-behaviour relations and neurophysiological mechanisms and theories.

• Complete perceptual and cognitive psychometric and neuropsychological tests.

• Gain hands-on experience with principal cognitive neuroscience techniques.

• Learn practical research skills with advanced psychological software.

• Study neurotypical and neurodivergent perceptual and cognitive development.

On this course, you’ll explore cognitive neuroscience, focusing on brain-behaviour relationships and underlying neurophysiological mechanisms. You’ll study human perception across visual, auditory and tactile senses, alongside debates on neurodivergent development. You'll apply techniques such as electroencephalography (EEG), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), psychometric assessments, eye movement tracking, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data analysis.
