There is both anecdotal and quantitative evidence that undergraduate neuroscience education has grown substantially in the US. Therefore, efforts to continue to track changes in undergraduate neuroscience education are important. Here we provide quantitative data that both public and private institutions are creating new undergraduate neuroscience programs. In addition, we demonstrate that the number of graduates from undergraduate neuroscience programs continues to increase compared to graduates from other life sciences programs. These data are important to faculty and administrators at institutions that currently have or seek to establish new undergraduate neuroscience programs.
有轶事和定量证据表明，美国本科神经科学教育有了大幅增长。因此，持续追踪本科神经科学教育变化的努力很重要。在此我们提供定量数据，表明公立和私立机构都在创建新的本科神经科学项目。此外，我们证明，与其他生命科学项目的毕业生相比，本科神经科学项目的毕业生数量持续增加。这些数据对于目前已有或寻求建立新的本科神经科学项目的机构的教师和管理人员很重要。
