认知与脑科学理学学士

随着科学家和哲学家对人类思维的探索越来越成熟，人们越来越广泛地认识到，没有一门学科能够回答有关大脑和行为的所有基本问题。跨学科的方法至关重要。在塔夫茨大学，认知和脑科学（CBS）的研究借鉴了心理学，神经科学，语言学，思维哲学，计算机科学和生物学。CBS学位为科学，计算机领域，卫生专业，法律和教育领域的职业提供了极好的准备。认知研究中心是著名哲学家丹尼尔·丹尼特（Daniel Dennett）和最重要的语言学家之一的研究与合作的行政中心Ray Jackendoff今天工作。这两位主要学者利用该中心使塔夫茨大
As scientists and philosophers grow more sophisticated in their exploration of the human mind, it becomes more widely understood that no single discipline will answer all the fundamental questions about brain and behavior. An interdisciplinary approach is critical. At Tufts, the study of cognitive and brain sciences (CBS) draws on psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, philosophy of mind, computer science, and biology. A degree in CBS provides an excellent preparation for careers in the sciences, computer fields, health professions, law, and education.The Center for Cognitive Studies operates as the administrative hub for research and collaboration by renowned philosopher Daniel Dennett and one of the foremost linguists working today, Ray Jackendoff. These two major scholars employ the center to make Tufts a hub for theoretical advances in this growing field. Because Tufts is such an undergraduate-centered institution, students have access to both major scholars through participation in courses and small seminars.Cognitive and Brain Science is an inherently interdisciplinary area, drawing on psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, philosophy of mind, computer science, and biology. A Cognitive and Brain Science degree provides an excellent preparation for careers in the sciences, computer fields, health professions, law, and education.
