Neurotech Micro-credentials

A partnership between Queen's University and NeurotechX. Engineers and computer scientists have the hard skills required to innovate in NeuroTech, but they often lack foundational neuroscience knowledge; the reverse is true for biomedical and social science students. Business students have industry skills and entrepreneurial spirit but lack foundational skills about the brain. Most groups of learners know little about neuroethical and regulatory frameworks. Our aim is to address these various gaps by developing an initial suite of core micro-credentials to prepare students to transition to this industry or help people in the workforce upscale their skills to do so.
