Neurology is the study of the brain, spinal cord and nerves, and the conditions that affect them.

At City St George’s, you will gain a deep understanding of neurological disorders, from epilepsy and stroke to neurodegenerative diseases, while developing the clinical skills to assess and support patients.

You will study the structure and function of the nervous system, learn to recognise neurological signs and symptoms, and explore diagnostic techniques including neurological examination and imaging.

Teaching is delivered through lectures, case-based discussions, and clinical skills sessions, led by neurologists and neuroscience researchers actively working in the field.

Practical experience is a key part of your learning, with opportunities to observe neurology clinics, multidisciplinary team meetings, and acute care settings, giving you insight into the patient journey from diagnosis to management.

You will also explore the latest research in neurology, understanding how advances in science and technology are shaping care for patients with neurological conditions.

Career perspectives

Studying neurology prepares you for a range of career opportunities in healthcare and research.

Graduates can progress into clinical training in neurology, neuroscience research, neurorehabilitation, or roles supporting patients with neurological conditions within healthcare settings.

Your knowledge and clinical insight will equip you to contribute to improving outcomes and quality of life for people living with neurological disorders.
