To be considered, a potential student must first of all have a strong interest in Computational Neuroscience. The student must have a background in biological sciences sufficient to be able to apply and be accepted into the Graduate Program in the Department of Biological Sciences as a Ph.D. student. See our Graduate Program home page for further information.
In addition, the student must have a strong background in mathematics (at least a year of math beyond calculus, including differential equations), and computer programming experience in either Fortran, C, or C++. Ideally the student should have some experience with the Unix operating system.
