学习是将我们定义为人类的能力，不仅在正式的课堂上，而且贯穿我们的整个生命。在学习与心理科学中，我们专注于学习者。在教育学院内外，我们的教职员工在社会文化背景下以及在各种特殊需求人群中研究学习和发展，以及如何最好地评估，测量和研究这些引人入胜的复杂过程。从神经学发展的微观层面到社会系统的宏观层面，我们的工作总体上涉及广泛的领域，但是学习者始终是我们关注的焦点。除了进行基础研究之外，我们还是制造商和设计师。我们创建和研究学习环境，学习技术，学习和行为干预以及测量和评估系统。与我们一起建立学习的未来。
Our Ph.D. program critically engages students in contemporary issues that impact education research, policy and practice. Emphasizing collaboration, the program is an interdisciplinary graduate group that draws its faculty from diverse fields of education, humanities, social science, physical and biological sciences, mathematics, and medicine, and engages with key campus centers and programs, such as the M.I.N.D. Institute and the Poverty Center.<br><br>Learning is what defines us as humans, not only in formal classrooms but across our whole lives. In Learning and Mind Sciences, we focus on the learner. Within the School of Education and beyond, our faculty examine learning and developmentin sociocultural contexts and among diverse and special-needs populationsand how best to assess, measure, and investigate these fascinating and complex processes. Collectively our work crosses a wide spectrum of fields, from the micro-level of neurological development to the macro-level of social systems, yet learners are always at the center of our attention. In addition to conducting basic research, we are also makers and designers. We create and study learning environments, learning technologies, learning and behavioral interventions, and measurement and assessment systems. Come build the future of learning with us.
