UC Merced Cognitive Science
Our interdisciplinary program integrates methods and approaches from neuroscience, linguistics, psychology, philosophy, and computer science, to study thought and behavior. One of the signature groups on our campus, Cognitive Science offers B.A. and B.S. degrees, and Ph.D. studies in Cognitive and Information Sciences as part of a graduate program in Social and Cognitive Sciences. Specialties are computational modeling, cognitive engineering, high-level cognition, language and communication, perception and action, and philosophy of cognitive science. We welcome applications from students at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
Faculty and students meet regularly for the Mind, Technology, and Society seminar which hosts talks from a diverse range of visiting researchers. Click here to see the Spring 2012 schedule and watch videos of recent speakers.
