博士 认知和认知神经科学（CCN）课程旨在教育和培训对学习学术水平最高的研究感兴趣的学生。该计划提供有关认知心理学和认知神经科学的广泛研究领域的培训。CCN教师研究中出现的一些新主题是：1）学习，记忆和执行功能–包括基本的联想学习机制以及记忆，语言处理，决策和创造力； 2）整个生命周期的认知发展，研究人员进行了研究婴儿，新兴成年人和老年人的认知，以及3）在现实世界中的认知和应用–包括成瘾，抑郁，精神分裂症和失语症的认知方面，多种语言体验对认知功能的影响，影响创造力的因素思维和设计以及人机交互。
The Ph.D. program in Cognitive and Cognitive Neuroscience (CCN) seeks to educate and train students interested in pursuing research at the highest levels of academic scholarship. The program offers training in a wide range of research areas in cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience. Some emergent themes in CCN faculty research are: 1) Learning, memory, and executive function – including basic associative learning mechanisms as well as memory, language processing, decision making and creativity, 2) Cognitive development across the lifespan, with researchers examining cognition in infants, emerging adults, and older adults, and 3) Cognition in real world contexts and applications – including cognitive aspects of addiction, depression, schizophrenia, and aphasia, the influence of multiple language experience on cognitive functioning, factors influencing creative thinking and design, and computer-human interaction.
