Cognitive Science is the multidisciplinary study of cognition in humans and machines. The goal is to understand the principles of intelligence and thought with the hope that this will lead to better understanding of the mind and of learning, and to the development of intelligent devices that constructively extend human abilities.
Students wishing to enrol in the Minor Cognitive Science must meet with the Interdisciplinary Programs Advisor.
The Minor Cognitive Science is intended to supplement and support Major or Honours programs in Computer Science, Linguistics, Philosophy, or Psychology. Students wishing to enroll in this Minor must meet with the Adviser.
