Summary:There is both anecdotal and quantitative evidence that undergraduate neuroscience education has grown substantially in the US. Therefore, efforts to continue to track changes in undergraduate neuroscience education are important. Here we provide quantitative data that both public and private institutions are creating new undergraduate neuroscience programs. In addition, we demonstrate that the number of graduates from undergraduate neuroscience programs continues to increase compared to graduates from other life sciences programs. These data are important to faculty and administrators at institutions that currently have or seek to establish new undergraduate neuroscience programs.
