Thank you for your reply! Has anyone done a cognitive neuroscience course without having a similar background? Was it very challenging?

Hi all,

Does anybody know a psychology conversion (MSc) course with a good reputation?

What about Psychological science (conversion) in Glasgow university?

Thanks,
Iren

Hi all,

I have a BA in Pedagogy and a MA in Special Needs. Although I have a background in education, I am very interested in research on neurodevelopmental disorders, so I applied and received an offer for a Masters in cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology in London. Also, I have an offer for an MSc psychological science (with cognitive neuroscience) conversion course.

I like the course in cognitive neuroscience more, but I have fears that I might need a good background in psychology first, and a conversion course in psychology for example would help. It may sound stupid, but I am also afraid that I might have less chances to be accepted for a PhD later if I don't have some background in psychology.

I feel really confused and I would be grateful if someone could give me an advice on this.

Thanks a lot!
Iren
