Neuroscience in UTD or University of Miami?

<p>I know there are HUGE differences between these schools, but how are the neuroscience programs at each? Also, is the UNiversity of Miami dangerous? In other words, is Miami a dangerous enough place for me to consider that a major factor in my decision??</p>

<p>do u live in the dallas area?</p>

<p>for neuro i would choose UTD since their neuro program is really good and is one of the top according to them. i applied to miami too, but didnt even kno neuro was an option lol. i would choose utd, but thats cuz i live close by</p>

<p>yeah i live just about 20 minutes from UTD. does anyone know where UTD ranks in the neuroscience department?</p>

<p>bump...any other ideas?</p>

<p>plano?
i dont kno its rank, but its pretty good</p>

<p>UMiami is not in Miami, but outside of it. The neuroscience major offers 2 tracks: neurobiology and neuropsychology. My son liked that he could choose. He hoped to be able to do research with doctors at the med school. In the end, he went elsewhere but there was a lot he liked about the UMiami program (he was offered the Singer Scholarship so that was a nice perk).</p>
