Cognitive Science is an interdisciplinary approach to the study of the mind, combining
knowledge and expertise from multiple disciplines—computer science, psychology,
neuroscience, linguistics, philosophy, anthropology, and biology, among other fields. In
addition to an undergraduate major, the Cognitive Science Program offers a number of
mechanisms for facilitating graduate education and research. These include a
certificate program, fellowship support for incoming and advanced graduate students,
travel grants, tutorials, and a visiting speaker series.
