117 Cognitive Science Degree Programs

The Research Master Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience: Cognitive Neuroscience gains knowledge of human brain function, perception and cognition, paralleled with hands-on training in advanced non-invasive brain imaging (e.g. fMRI, fNIRS, DWI, EEG/MEG) and brain stimulation (TMS, tDCS) techniques.

What does it mean to be healthy, not just physically, but mentally and socially too? In the Health, Cognition & Behavior cluster, you explore the science behind human well-being. From how the brain processes emotions and decisions, to how the body responds to illness or stress, in this cluster, you dive into what helps people thrive and what happens when things go wrong.

The MSc programme is intended for students who wish to study cognitive processes based on their underlying neural systems. There are two broad knowledge that can be taken – one is behavioral experiments and the other is computational modeling.

Doctor of Philosophy in Cognitive Science The Department of Cognitive Science offers a PhD program in Cognitive Science. This research-based, interdisciplinary program offers specialization in the fields of social cognition, cognitive development, and formal and biological models of perception and learning. Students may take courses in cognitive psychology, philosophy of mind, cognitive anthropology, visual perception and computational modelling.

Master of Arts in COGNITIVE SCIENCE combines graduate studies and advanced research in a variety of areas of cognitive science.

RIT’s cognitive science Ph.D. provides an interdisciplinary study of the human mind that combines insights from psychology, computer science, linguistics, neuroscience, augmented reality, and philosophy. Students in the Ph.D. in cognitive science conduct research on human perception, cognition, action, and language with a focus on the representation and processing of information within biological and computational frameworks.

Cognitive science involves the study of cognition, perception, and emotion from a wide range of perspectives. Despite the many different methodologies they use, cognitive scientists are united in their interest in the mind—and the brain.

The two-year CIMeC Master’s in Cognitive Science provides students with advanced theoretical and methodological knowledge in behavioral, cognitive and computational neuroscience, as well as computational linguistics through an interdisciplinary approach to the study of the mind-brain system.

Cognitive Science includes study of the foundations of knowledge, biological and electrical systems that represent and use knowledge and formal models of cognition. In applications, the study of Cognitive Science can yield improvements in the design of control and communication systems, expert systems and educational software.

MSc in Cognitive Science is the study of how processes in the mind shape human behavior. Cognitive scientists use advanced statistics, and sensitive experimental methods, to reveal the nature of these processes. They do this to advance our knowledge of human thought and behavior, and to apply this knowledge in real-world settings.

Cognitive Science, like psychology, aims to understand the mind's complexities and how the brain's mental processes influence behaviour. It emerged in the 1950s as a response to Behaviourism, which argued that behaviour is shaped by past experiences and conditioning.

Cognitive Science and Language is an inter-university, interdisciplinary postgraduate program combining master's degree and doctoral levels that responds to the need to overcome the academic barriers between the different areas of cognitive science. The program places a particular focus on speech perception and language acquisition, the syntactic and semantic processing involved in speech, the relationship between semantics and cognition, the logical structure of language and the epistemic and conceptual foundations of language study, computational analysis of language, and the relationship between the different areas of cognitive science.

MSc in Modeling of Neuronal and Cognitive Systems. Mod4neuCog is a two-year interdisciplinary master's program, that aims to train active researchers at the crossroads of computer science, applied mathematics, and cognitive neuroscience. We encourage students with a background in computer science, mathematics, cognitive science, psychology, or neuroscience to apply to our program, where they will learn to model cognitive functions using mathematical and computational tools.

In addition, you will learn to apply theories and methods from cognitive neuroscience to real-world scenarios: economic decision making, education, marketing, clinical practice, policymaking, etc. During the master's, you will combine your scientific knowledge and your creativity to develop your own project that brings cognitive neuroscience from the lab into the world.

The Cognitive Neuroscience MRes is designed for students interested in understanding how the brain supports mental processes like perception, memory, and decision-making. It offers a thorough introduction to key theories, research methods, and curren…
