Course details

The course introduces students to current knowledge about neurophysiological and neuroanatomical aspects of central nervous system structure and functioning. This knowledge is then applied for the purpose of understanding human behaviour through the study of neurons and neural networks, neuroanatomy, the visual and auditory sensory systems, motor activity and sleep. Methods of studying the central nervous system are also discussed. It is a requirement of enrolment in the course that students have access to the CQU World Wide Web site via the Internet.
