The Ph.D. in Neuroengineering, a joint program between the UAB Schools of Engineering and Medicine, is a first-of-its kind program in the state of Alabama and one of the only freestanding neuroengineering doctoral programs in the country.

This program integrates advanced topics in such areas as

* neurophysiology
* neural dynamics
* neuropathology
* systems engineering
* computational analysis
* advanced imaging
* data analysis

By combining faculty expertise in neurobiology, neuroscience, engineering and the sciences, we are training a new generation of neuroengineers to advance understanding of neurodegenerative disorders and other brain diseases and develop novel therapeutics, neuroprosthetics and tools to restore lost brain function and improve patient outcomes.
