Degrees Offered
Doctor of Philosophy, a combined degree program in cognitive science and another discipline (for example, psychology, computer science, philosophy, linguistics, speech and hearing sciences, etc.).

The Cognitive Science Program comprises an interdisciplinary research program and a doctoral degree program. Students carry out intensive research projects in state-of-the-art computer-based laboratories. The Ph.D. degree in cognitive science may be a major or a minor; it must be associated with another department major. The program is designed to train students in theory development and model building (mathematical, formal, and computer simulation models), in empirical research, and in the development of the conceptual framework and technical skills for successful careers in research, teaching, business, and government.

Doctor of Philosophy Degree

Admission Requirements
Acceptance into the Cognitive Science Program is contingent upon admission by the originating department. Students must apply to the originating department and send a copy of the application to the Cognitive Science Program.

Course Requirements
A minimum of 90 credit hours, of which 32 credit hours must be in courses listed or cross-listed in cognitive science, including Q540 (3 credits), Q550 (3 credits), Q551 or the equivalent (3 credits), Q733 (at least 4 semesters, maximum of 1 credit total), and at least 6 credit hours not in the originating discipline and not among Q540, Q530, Q550, Q551, Q689, Q700, Q733, Q750, Q799, and Q899. The 6 outside credit hours may not be taken in pure research courses (the equivalent of Q799 and Q899). The 32 credit hours may include a maximum of 6 credit hours in pure research courses (Q799, Q899, or the equivalent in originating departments). Strong encouragement is given to interdisciplinary diversification. Note that courses may count toward the requirements of both cognitive science and the originating department.

Tool-Skills Requirements
Students must satisfy three tool skills: (1) Computer Programming: Q530 or CSCI T501 or equivalent; (2) Mathematics/Logic: two mathematics courses, other than statistics. These may be either M211/M212 or 300-level and above. Formal logic at the 300-level or above either in Mathematics or Philosophy will also satisfy this requirement; (3) Statistics: K300 or K310 or the equivalent.

Qualifying Examination
There are two options for the qualifying examination: (a) an examination in the originating discipline and a separate comprehensive examination in cognitive science (these may be taken at separate times); or (b) a joint examination covering relevant areas of both the originating discipline and cognitive science, as determined by the advisory committee, and with permission of both the originating discipline and the Cognitive Science Program. The cognitive science examination is normally taken after completion of the cognitive science course requirements. The examination may be repeated only once.

Public Colloquium
The student must give a colloquium advertised at large to the university community, covering some aspect of the student’s research in cognitive science. The colloquium may be given as part of the colloquium series (Q733) or as a separately arranged event. The research covered may be from any stage of the student’s career, including (but not restricted to) the thesis research.

Final Examination
The public and oral defense of the dissertation will be conducted jointly with the student’s originating discipline.

Ph.D. Minor in Cognitive Science
Graduate students obtaining a Ph.D. in an originating discipline may find that discipline gives them the option of taking a minor in cognitive science. To obtain such a minor, students must satisfy the following requirements: (a) obtain approval from the Cognitive Science Program; and (b) complete Q540, Q550, at least two semesters of Q733, and at least 6 other credit hours in cognitive science courses not in the originating discipline.

Certificates in Cognitive Science

The Cognitive Science Program is extremely broad, ranging from psychology to business to anthropology to computer science, to name just a few. Students in other disciplines may elect to focus on an area or areas within the broad range of cognitive science. Certificates are open to students upon request; several different cognitive science certificate programs are described in the following pages. Note that certificates are not required for a joint Ph.D. degree. The student will inform the cognitive science office, the student’s cognitive science advisor, and the certificate director of an intent to pursue a certificate.

General Requirements for Certificates

1. As soon as the student decides to pursue a certificate, a written proposal must be submitted to the Certificate Steering Committee giving a detailed course of study. The proposal may be a revised draft of an earlier proposal not approved, or an alteration of a previously approved proposal, and may contain a request for a revision of any of the stated requirements.
