<p>Kim Huhman</p><p>1. Reviewed 29 neuroscience programs in 8 states (IL, IN, MI, NY, OH, PA, WI)</p><p>2. Structures:  Department – N=4 (2 are actually in Biology Depts but give a Neuroscience degree)  Institute – N=3  Grad Program – N=17  Center – N=5</p><p>3. All are interdisciplinary, even the departments; all programs, regardless of structure, stress the collaborative, interdisciplinary nature of neuroscience and state that this a strength of their program</p><p>4. Vast majority only have graduate programs with the neuroscience entity acting as curricular infrastructure and promoting collaboration/collegiality; the few with undergraduate majors (approximately 10% of programs reviewed here) offer this either through a department (usually biology but also some in psychology) or via a BIS-type mechanism; lack of undergraduate degrees probably reflects the lack of a department-like structure (i.e., faculty appointed to many departments with no undergrad teaching responsibility in neuroscience) at most of the institutions</p><p>5. Almost all faculty have primary appointments in another department (with a range as wide as our B&B in most places); programs list their faculty as core/adjunct; core/affiliate &or associate; primary/secondary; some list as joint appointments but again the vast majority are appointed to a traditional dept (e.g., bio, psy, chem, zoology, physiol)</p><p>6. Only a very few entities have true appointments to neuroscience with space and indirects going to neuroscience (most at medical schools but also MSU and SUNY Stony Brook)</p><p>7. Most have no space actually assigned to Nsci except in the few departments and in medical schools</p>
