About this programme
The Master's programme focuses on conveying in-depth, research-orientated knowledge in the field of Cognitive Science. Social sciences and psychology are combined with IT, linguistics, and biology/neuroscience to create a broader field of cognitive science. The combination of those separate fields gives us the ability to precisely use the knowledge already acquired within those fields to further examine aspects of the human mind from the perspective of technology, biology, communication and social behaviour, which are all interconnected. Central disciplines of this programme are: Psychology Computer Science Biology Linguistics Philosophy
