心理学文学硕士-认知心理学

认知心理学是心理学的一个分支，致力于理解心理的运作方式–构成人们如何获取，存储，转化和交流信息的心理事件。理解认知为我们提供了一个独特的窗口，帮助我们了解自己是谁以及为什么要以自己的方式行事。此外，我们可以利用这些知识以多种方式改善我们的日常生活。我们的认知心理学研究生课程是一项研究密集型课程，旨在为学生提供对认知心理学的透彻理解以及进行高质量独立研究所需的技能。我们努力为学生提供追求学术兴趣并实现其长期职业目标所需的工具和机会，无论是在学术界还是在工业界。例如，对于后者，学生有机会通过我们的“应用实习”
Our Cognitive Psychology program provides students with an interactive and enriching environment in which to study mind and behaviour, where you will work closely with other students and with faculty members. The program emphasizes the development of your research skills in the service of carrying out high quality, independent research. In the Cognitive area, applicants are typically admitted to the MA program and continue directly to the PhD program afterward. Cognitive Psychology is the branch of psychology that deals with understanding how the mind works – the mental events that underlie how people acquire, store, transform, and communicate information. Understanding cognition provides a unique window into who we are and why we behave the way we do. Moreover, we can leverage this knowledge to improve our day-to-day lives in many ways.<br><br>Our graduate program in Cognitive Psychology is a research-intensive program that provides students with both a thorough understanding of cognitive psychology and the skills necessary to perform high quality independent research. We endeavour to provide students with the tools and opportunities that they need to pursue their scientific interests and to fulfill their long-term career goals, whether in academia or in industry. For example, with respect to the latter, students have the opportunity to spend time working in an industry position related to cognitive psychology through our Applied Practicum course. In addition, we encourage students to collaborate with other faculty both within cognitive psychology and across traditional area boundaries. For example, we have a close alliance with the 7 faculty in the department's Cognitive Neuroscience area. This creates a fertile and enriching environment to explore the underlying nature of the human mind.
