Program Description
Cognitive science is an interdisciplinary study of the mind with an emphasis on how people interact with computers. To integrate research results from a wide range of disciplines into a more complete understanding of the mind, the programs draws on methods associated with psychology, computer science (artificial intelligence), linguistics, philosophy, anthropology and biology. You’ll start building a solid foundation in the field through two introductory courses that focus on the core values of cognitive science and the seminal ideas associated with contributing disciplines and the brain, mind and consciousness. In addition to learning more about yourself, you will be better equipped for success in our technologically vibrant society.
