Bachelor of Cognitive Science (Honours) in Cognition and Computation (Co-op)

Program Overview

Cognitive Science involves the study of cognition, perception and emotion from a wide range of perspectives. Despite the many different methodologies they use, cognitive scientists are united in their interest in the mind — and the brain.
Researchers in our program (students and faculty members) study the mind by combining the methods and theories of five disciplines: psychology, philosophy, linguistics, neuroscience and computer science. This interdisciplinary approach allows unique insights into human understanding, thought, perception, language and emotion.

Exceptional Labs and Resources
Assist our world-renowned faculty in their diverse research areas. You can take advantage of a variety of on-campus research facilities, including those associated with the Visualization and Simulation Centre, the Science of Imagination Lab, the Language and Brain Lab, and more.

Concentrations
As a student, you can develop your expertise in one of 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 enroll in the Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Modelling stream.

Work Experience
The Honours Thesis allows you to develop an area of independent research alongside a faculty supervisor. You will graduate with valuable research experience, specific skills in identifying and analyzing problems, and a defined area of expertise.
The Honours Project allows you to gain hands-on experience and prepares you for a career in cognitive science. Working in groups, you will investigate a compelling question in cognitive science and complete an original research project. This experience transforms you into a confident researcher ready to enter the competitive job market or further your education.
A Co-op option is available. Co-op is the opportunity to get a head start on a career. Co-op work terms allow for the development of key employability skills, exploration of career options and graduation with tangible, workplace experience.
