DescriptionInterested in understanding how people and computers think? Study the human mind and cognitive computing from multiple perspectives in the Bachelor of Cognitive Science (BCogSc). We study the mind by combining the methods and theories of five disciplines: neuroscience, computer science, psychology, linguistics and philosophy. This interdisciplinary approach provides unique insights into human understanding, thought, perception, language and emotion.

We offer five concentrations: Biological Foundations of Cognition; Cognition and Computation; Cognition and Psychology; Language and Linguistics; Philosophical and Conceptual Issues.
Students who have attained third-year standing and meet the minimum CGPA requirement have the option to also enrol in the Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Modelling stream.
