Master’s programme Cognitive Science (E)

Content and focus of the degree programme:

Graduates of this joint degree master’s programme will have knowledge of the basic concepts of cognitive science and comprehensive methodological knowledge and training in current research techniques. Moreover, the students will acquire expertise in a specific area of cognitive science (i.e. on a specific cognitive phenomenon). What is so special and unique about this programme is, on one hand, its radical interdisciplinary approach, which manifests itself in the structure of the curriculum and in the didactic principles (e.g. work in intercultural, interdisciplinary teams, phenomenon-oriented [vs. discipline-oriented] approach, etc.), and on the other hand the international dimension and the resulting wide range of research options.
