Hello Aspirant,

Hope you’re doing well.
To become a neuroscientist, you can choose from a variety of career routes. However, be sure to have a solid Plan B in place in case you decide that becoming a neuroscientist isn't what you really want to do.

1. Graduate study in neuropsychology or cognitive psychology after a BA/BS in psychology, neuroscience, or cognitive science
2. BS Bioinformatics graduate programme after computer science and biology majors
3. BS Graduate study in biostatistics after majoring in math and statistics
4. Biology BS followed by neuroscience graduate school
5. Graduate study in biomedical engineering after a BS in electrical engineering
6. Any of the aforementioned undergraduate majors followed by a residency in neurology

I would advise choosing a math, computer science, or electrical engineering degree with a double major (or minor) in either biology or psychology as a supplement. Undergraduate degrees in biology and psychology are largely useless, and they don't offer a solid backup plan in case you don't get accepted to graduate school.

The most crucial piece of advise is to get your study going as soon as possible! The most crucial criterion for admission to graduate schools is whether or not you have a strong track record of producing quality research!

Hope this helps.

Good luck.
