NEURO C251Computational Neuroscience for Interdisciplinary Scientists
Neuroscience, Graduate · 4 units · Graduate courses (200-299)
Designed for students in both experimental and computational tracks to acquire significant breadth and depth in computational neuroscience. Highly interdisciplinary study in computational neuroscience. Integrates data-driven modeling, simulations, and analyses of neural dynamics to train students in hypothesis-driven approach to computational modeling. Students can immediately apply acquired knowledge and skills in research or industry settings. Concurrently scheduled with course C151.
S/U or letter grading.
When it runs
Not on the schedule for any of Fall 2025 through Spring 2027. UCLA publishes only that window, so this does not mean the course is gone — check the official listing.
