Course description

The core idea in cognitive science is that the human mind functions as an information processing system. Researchers in this field aim to understand how the mind processes information to generate intelligent behavior. They use methods from experimental psychology and computer science to describe human behavior and the underlying information processing. At TU Darmstadt, the Cognitive Science curriculum focuses on Cognitive Psychology and Artificial Intelligence. These subjects form the foundation of the program, providing students with the tools to explore and understand the complexities of the human mind.
