LNDS candidates are very welcome to follow courses of the UNIGE Msc program in Neuroscience especially when there is no equivalent offer among PhD courses. <\/strong>
Bote that PhD candidates often receive less credits for participation in MSc courses, especially for “introductory courses” (e.g. 3 ECTS for MSc students = 2 ECTS for PhD candidates). Contact the LNDS coordinator in case of questions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Msc neuroscience course registration<\/strong>: Submit your course wish<\/strong> (at least 2w before course start) using the LINK HERE<\/a><\/strong> and let the LNDS coordinator know by a short e-mail. Do also enroll in the UNIGE course moodle <\/strong>to get access to the teaching materials and receive course notifications and follow-up communication asking, e.g. to confirm your presence in the course exam during the semester!
Your course wish will be transferred to the Msc coordinator who will confirm during the ongoing semester, also asking whether you will take the course exam (which is the basis for the ECTS. Meaning, just start doing the course when it starts; the confimrtaions about exams etc will follow during the semester! <\/em>
NOTE: ONLY enrolling in the course moodle will not automatically put you on the participant list and register you for the course exam! <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
