What do Smith neuroscience students do?

After graduation... Many go to graduate school or health-profession school, often after taking some time to explore various job opportunities. For example, recent grads have worked as research assistants in laboratories investigating areas as diverse as cognition, vision, and sleep. Or they've taken a variety of other jobs including working for public health agencies and environmental services agencies and even as horse trainers! Some recent Neuroscience alums have gone to graduate school to obtain a Ph.D. degree at a variety of universities, including Caltech, MIT, Harvard, Johns Hopkins, UCSF, UVA, and WashU. Neuroscience majors have also gone to medical schools, including Albert Einstein, Case Western Reserve, Harvard, Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, SUNY Stony Brook, Touro University, Tulane, and the University of Iowa..... And to nursing schools, including Yale and Columbia.... and to programs in clinical psychology.... and to law school... But that's not all! Smith Neuroscience majors are pursuing interesting careers in other important arenas. They are, for example, elementary and secondary school teachers, hotel administrators, and administrators of social service programs.

& while they're at Smith... They are interested in science publishing, environmental law, human and veterinary medicine, public health, and research in numerous areas, including development of the brain, neuroendocrinology of reproduction, effects of cytokines on circadian rhythms, the effects of anesthetics on membrane channels, olfaction, sleep, behavior and cognition, and more.
