Alumni
The major was approved by New York State in 2005 and began accepting students the same year. The first seven students to complete the major graduated in Spring 2007. The major has continuously graduated students in each succeeding academic year with over 200 graduates as of May 2018. In addition, our graduates have also been awarded prestigious national and international scholarships.
To date, a large majority of neuroscience majors have continued their education in graduate programs (e.g., graduate school, medical school, dental school), including those at some of the nation’s most prestigious colleges and universities. This high rate of success for our majors is due, at least in part, to the research-related training opportunities that are fostered by Queens College and mentored by the neuroscience faculty.
