Integrating the study of mind, brain, and behavior

The Department of Cognitive and Psychological Sciences (CoPsy) is dedicated to the interdisciplinary study of mind, brain and behavior. Its mission is to conduct impactful state-of-the-art research, to teach, and to provide service to society in these areas of scholarship.

Academics

Our curriculum features a unique, intellectually diverse mix of courses, and we place a particular emphasis on methods, critical thinking, and research skills to address questions about mind, brain, and behavior.
Our graduate programs are highly selective, successfully recruiting and retaining excellent students, competing with the top programs in the world. Our doctoral students go on to be scientists and scholars who contribute to the generation of knowledge in both academic and non-academic settings.

Research

We share a belief that transformational advances in understanding mind, brain, and behavior will occur at the boundaries of disciplines, across levels of analysis, and through a diversity of approaches, paradigms, and perspectives. Our interdisciplinary character is captured by this image, which crosses traditional areas with our cross-cutting research themes.
