Neuroscience and Education

Welcome to the Neuroscience & Education program


The Neuroscience and Education program at Teachers College was the first graduate program in the United States and around the globe to offer multidisciplinary training focused on the intersections of neuroscience and education. The program is designed to prepare a specialist prepared to bridge the gap between research on the brain, cognition and behavior; and the problems encountered in schools and other applied settings. Students may also enter this program in preparation for further study in neuroscience and allied fields.
