Welcome to the Cognitive Science in Education program
In the Cognitive Science in Education program, students examine the cognitive mechanisms that underlie learning and thinking in school and non-school settings. Our program trains students in basic theories of human cognition, the practice and interpretation of empirical cognitive and developmental research, and how to use research to improve educational practices and develop innovative methods built around new technologies. The curriculum includes cognitive, developmental and educational psychology, and computer science which provide students with a valuable perspective on cognition and learning.
