Not sure what you mean. Neurology is a specialty field of medicine. A neurologist’s educational background and medical training varies with the country of training. Typically it includes a medical degree, and some years of postgraduate training, between 2-5 years. In the US, neurologists follow the standard pattern with an undergraduate degree, four years of medical school, a one-year internship and three years of specialized training. Many neurologists also have additional training or interest in one area of neurology such as stroke, epilepsy, neuromuscular, sleep medicine, pain management, or movement disorders.

If your preparing to enter college for the first time you’re going to want to go to medical school in order to become a neurologist.

If you’re already in medical school and just can’t decide what specialty field to get into after your internship, in the specialty of neurology, pain management is a growing need so that’s always a good choice.

Good luck to you.

If you plan to become a neurologist, you should major in neuroscience, if your college offers this program. Otherwise, a degree in biomedical science, biology, or biochemistry would be a great start in undergraduate schooling. Then it is off to med school, of course.

Good Luck!

Make sure you pick something you really like and enjoy. You want to go into a field that you will always be pleased and happy with. I always say that I will do what I love, and if I stop loving whatever that is, I will quit.
