认知神经科学领域的目标是严格理解人脑如何支持行动，影响，决策，语言，感知，推理，社会过程以及认知和行为的其他方面，包括这些过程如何在儿童中发展和改变。和成人大脑随着时间的流逝。培训的重点是学习认知神经科学中使用的一种或多种技术，并在学生选择的学习计划中进行广泛的经验研究。认知神经科学领域的教师与位于心理学大楼的影像研究设施有着密切的联系，并设有3T fMRI，256通道EEG，TMS和与MR兼容的EEG。
Our Computational and Cognitive Neuroscience track provides a rigorous understanding of how the human brain supports action, affect, decision making, language, perception, reasoning, social processes, and other aspects of cognition and behavior, including how such processes develop and change in child and adult brains through time. Training focuses on learning one or more techniques used in Computational and Cognitive Neuroscience and performing extensive empirical research in your chosen program of study. Our Computational and Cognitive Neuroscience faculty have strong associations with the Imaging Research Facility, which is located in the Psychology building, and features 3T fMRI, and dual 64-channel EEG systems.
