NEUROSCIENCE DEGREES

UNDERGRADUATE DEGREES

In general, neuroscience is slightly more in-demand than the average subject at the college level. Each course of study awards close to 6,156 undergraduate degrees per year; 7,395 people last May were granted an undergrad degree in neuroscience, making it the nation's 65th most popular area of study. Binghamton University​ granted 263 of those degrees (#1 in the United States), and institutions in Pennsylvania granted more degrees than any U.S. State (682).

234 institutions in the nation offer undergraduate degrees in neuroscience; therefore, it potentially isn't easy to pick the right school. Bachelor's degrees in neuroscience are 21.9% more universally offered than the average subject, making it the 95th most universally available US degree.

GRADUATE DEGREES

While 88% of last May's degrees in neuroscience were undergraduate degrees; 12% were grad degrees. Neuroscience is the 127th most popular graduate degree in the United States, with 969 degrees conferred. To put that in context, the average subject is 2.9 times more popular among postgrads than neuroscience.

In Total, 8,364 students received a bachelor's or higher in neuroscience last spring.

ONLINE NEUROSCIENCE DEGREES

None of the students who completed four-year degrees or postgrad degrees in neuroscience last May took comprehensively online programs. Comprehensively online programs are not even available at any U.S. institutions. ### PARTIALLY ONLINE NEUROSCIENCE DEGREES

  • Last spring, 831 students earned an undergraduate degree in neuroscience partially online
  • 164 institutions across the nation have undergrad degrees in neuroscience partially online
  • 11.24% of all four-year degree in neuroscience are done partially online
  • Ohio State University-Main Campus​ granted 78 partially online undergraduate degrees in neuroscience, more than any other US school
  • 12 of the institutions offering partially online bachelor's degrees in neuroscience are located in New York, the most of any state
  • The average partially online area of study awards 1,683 yearly bachelor's degrees or higher

IN-PERSON NEUROSCIENCE DEGREES

  • Neuroscience is the 55th most popular exclusively in-person undergrad degree in the USA
  • Neuroscience is the 35th most universally offered entirely in-person college degree around the country
  • Last May, 7,460 students received a bachelor's or higher in neuroscience totally in-person
