Core Courses
IPN M.Sc. students have the option to take either听NEUR 630 or NEUR 631, or both.
Ph.D. students must take both.
Note that NEUR 630 and NEUR 631 are intended as accelerated survey courses in cellular & molecular neuroscience and systems neuroscience respectively. If you feel your background in neurobiology is weak, these courses are intended for you, to expose you to the critical foundations in neuroscience. If you already have a strong neuroscience background (e.g., undergraduate or听MSc degree in Neuroscience) you may find these courses add very little to your training. In this case we strongly urge you to apply for an听exemption from NEUR 630 and/or NEUR 631 so that you can take more specialized graduate seminar courses instead. Although they are listed as required core courses, we enthusiastically encourage you to seek the exemption if you are eligible
Note that our core courses are not open to non-苹果淫院 students.听

NEUR 705 - Mandatory Course
Effective as of September 2010, all IPN students must complete the NEUR 705 course in order to graduate from the program.
NEUR 705 is a research course听worth zero credits. The objectives of NEUR 705 are to teach and familiarize students on the responsible conduct of research, so that they are able to identify and assess ethical issues that may arise in research, and handle research integrity conflicts that may arise in their own work/studies.
More information on the course is available here.听

Convergence I & II: Arts + Neuroscience + Society
Overview: This interdisciplinary course invites students to creatively explore the intersection of arts, neuroscience, and society, and how these domains shape the understandings of ourselves and others. IPN Ph.D. students听and RI-MUHC BRaIN students, in collaboration with Concordia University's Fine Arts students, create听self-directed, collaborative projects which听converge artistic听and scientific research. The course combines lectures, debates, site visits, and independent study to encourage all participants to understand and discover territories outside their artistic or scientific comfort zones. The course encourages both intimate and large group discussions, as well as expressing arts and science knowledge through production, representations, and artistic as well as communicative outcomes.
Requirements:听
- Must be a Ph.D. student. If you are a听Master's student, obtain a letter of recommendation and special permission from your P.I. and the Graduate Program Director;
- Submit a letter of intent to info [at] convergenceinitiative.org听;
- Once your request is approved by the Convergence administrative team, you may register for the course via the .听

Undergraduate Courses
With the exception of 500-level courses, all other undergraduate courses are considered extra courses, and you will be required to pay additional tuition and ancillary fee charges. If your supervisor requests that you enrol in an undergraduate course听because it may be beneficial to your graduate research, you must do the following:
- E-mail the IPN听office (ipn [at] mcgill.ca) with proof that your supervisor has given you approval to enrol in an undergraduate course;
- Complete the 'Request for Registration/Course Changes' form.
- Important:听On page 3 of the form, when asked what the 'reason for requesting the UG course' is, you must select 'extra course' if you do not want this course to affect your graduate cGPA. Otherwise, selecting the option 'additional coursework only' will cause your grade in this听course to affect your graduate cGPA.
