    Application form

  • Requirements

    For the course, you will need access to a laptop (with a wireless internet connection) running a modern operating system (Linux, Windows or MacOS). You will also need a Multimeter that can measure voltage and current, which is generally available in labs (if not, please indicate it in your application form, in the dedicated field).

    No prior experience in electronics, robotics, or programming is necessary, but a very strong enthusiasm for finding out how the technology around us really works is a must. 


    Group Applications

    You are welcome to take the NeuroKit course alone, however, we highly encourage local groups of students to take the course together. 

    We would like the neuroKits courses to become part of master and Phd programmes. Here you can find our more about our plan.
