Student Opportunities
Faculty-Mentored Research
Research is a central part of neuroscience at Wake Forest. Through faculty-mentored research experiences, undergraduate students have the opportunity to engage directly with scientific discovery—working alongside faculty on questions that span molecules to behavior, and laboratory science to human experience.
URECA Center
The URECA Center is the embodiment of Wake Forest’s historic commitment to and strategic vision for intense, productive, faculty-student collaboration through scholarship. The Center provides an administrative umbrella for mentored, undergraduate scholarship and encourages and supports programs of the highest quality and far-reaching impact.
Study Abroad
The Wake Forest Salamanca Neuroscience Program offers STEM students the opportunity to study science at one of the leading neuroscience institutes in Europe. Students on the program are enrolled at the Neuroscience Institute at the University of Salamanca (INCyL), site of cutting-edge research in areas ranging from Parkinson’s Disease to regenerative medicine to cell therapy.
Neuroscience Club
The club aims to provide information and research to Winston-Salem and Wake Forest communities in an effort to broaden the understanding of the human brain and to make neuroscience a fun and enjoyable topic for the entire community to relate to and be involved with.
Neuroscience Book Club
Every semester faculty and students of the Neuroscience Book Club meets to discuss a book.
