Dear RRR,

Thanks for shouting out! There are a ton of options. However, as you probably know by now, neural engineering programs generally lack marketing and can be difficult to find. If you go to the SFN website, you can look for schools that were presenting posters or giving talks. Generally, these are the schools you want to join…the ones who are doing things. Apart from that, there are a few other sources, such as the massive, two volume neural engineering text’s author index, that can provide clues. Frankly, the best guide is your own intuition; if you like their work, apply.

Here is a short, but by no means exhaustive list of international progams that have at least something to do with neural engineering:

• Institute for Neuroinformatics, Zurich, Switzerland
• University of Western Sydney, Australia
• University of Cape Town, South Africa
• University of Cambridge, United Kingdom
• University College London, United Kingdom
• Otto-von-Guericke University, Germany
• Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration, Germany
• University of Lund, Sweden
• University of Newcastle, United Kingdom
• National Institute for Physiological Science, Okazaki, Japan
• Center for Neuroprosthetics, Lausanne, Switzerland
• Universitätsklinik für Neurochirurgie, Tübingen, Germany
• University of Luebeck, Germany
• Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Leipzig, Germany
