<p>I’m actually planning on leaving the Behavioral Neuroscience program in the fall, mainly because I don’t much enjoy the psychology courses, and also felt that I really wan’t sure that neuroscience was the right field for me (as a result, I’m changing to a Math/Biology Dual Major, which should allow me a greater breadth of study, and open up a larger number of opportunities when looking for a graduate school). </p>
<p>That said, it’s quite possible to graduate with a behavioral neuroscience degree while taking mostly neuroscience courses (all courses that directly relate to behavior are electives to which there are alternatives). For some time, there has existed a plan to firm up major requirements and add more specific courses, but based on the drafts I’ve seen, it shouldn’t prevent you from de-emphasizing the behavior aspect if you desire to do so. </p>
<p>Being split between the biology and psychology departments can complicate things occasionally (a friend in the major recently spent several hours working out their co-op pay because of some administrative snag related to being divided between two departments), but you also have access to more resources (be they research opportunities, professors, etc.)</p>
