Cognitive Science, PhD
Johns Hopkins University · Baltimore, United States
The Department of Cognitive Science's five-year PhD program has a primary goal to train a new generation of cognitive scientists who can meld multiple existing disciplines into a new, genuinely integrated science of the mind/brain. A secondary goal is to train graduates who are competitive for positions in traditional disciplinary departments at research universities. Because many of the most exciting research developments recognized within the related traditional disciplines arise through interdisciplinary research, the training in cognitive science offered by the department can promote a graduate’s attractiveness as a candidate for positions in a variety of departments.
