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.
You study topics like mental health, the biology of the human body, cognitive processes, and behavior, while also learning how lifestyle, environment, and society play a role. Combine courses in:
- Biomedical Science
- Clinical Psychology
- Cognitive Science
- Life Science
It doesn’t stop there. At our Liberal Arts and Sciences university, you can connect Health, Cognition & Behavior with others like Government & Society to look at healthcare systems and public health policy, or Data Science & Intelligent Systems to analyze health trends and model the spread of diseases.
Whether you're interested in psychology, medicine, global health, or simply what makes people tick, this cluster offers a deep and broad foundation to help you understand human well-being.
