心理学哲学博士

布兰代斯大学的竞争性博士课程旨在教育杰出的心理学家，思想家和教师，无论是在学院，行业还是应用环境中，都将对该领域做出重要贡献。我们的“大脑身体行为”计划提供了一个总体的，统一的框架，促进了协作和跨学科的思想交流。与大多数博士课程不同，我们不会将学生划分为传统领域（认知，社会，发展等）。相反，我们旨在培养真正的跨学科研究和培训，以帮助学生发展研究专业领域，同时提供机会，使各种理论和方法论观点在他们选择的培训领域中发挥作用。这些不仅包括心理学学科的观点，还包括与神经科学，计算机科学和生物学的交叉点。我们认为，
The competitive PhD program at Brandeis aims to educate exceptional psychological scientists, thinkers and teachers who will make important contributions to the field, whether in the academy, industry, or applied settings.<br><br>Our Brain Body Behavior program provides an overarching, unifying framework that facilitates collaboration and interdisciplinary exchange of ideas.<br><br>Unlike most PhD programs, we don't divide students into traditional areas (cognitive, social, developmental etc.). Rather, we aim to foster truly interdisciplinary research and training that helps students develop an area of research specialization while providing opportunities to bring various theoretical and methodological perspectives to work in their chosen area of training. These include not only perspectives from the discipline of psychology, but its intersection with neuroscience, computer science, and biology.<br><br>We believe that a consideration of body, brain, social and developmental processes is essential to understanding human behavior. This approach is supported through the NIGMS funded Brain, Body and Behavior training grant, which promotes interaction between the psychological and biomedical domains.<br><br>The PhD program in psychology at Brandeis emphasizes both intense research and breadth and depth of knowledge. You will focus on a particular area of research, while also being part of a community of researchers. Your dissertation adviser will be a leader in his or her field - from cortical-hippocampal interactions in learning to lifespan development, from taste perception to cultural neuroscience, to name a few. In both coursework and interactive workshops, we emphasis rigorous and open science practices and advanced methodological training.
