EEC 244 – Introduction to Neuroengineering
4 units (A/F Letter Graded)
Winter Quarter 2025
Time, location, and CRN: TBD
Objective: Neuroengineering is emerging as the field where engineering, medicine and neuroscience come together to produce innovative research and impactful solutions that address the broad range of pathologies of the central and peripheral nervous system. The unifying objective of this team-taught interdisciplinary course is to introduce students to the key research areas and tools in neuroengineering, and employ NIH-style proposal writing exercises to integrate course content into potential projects.
