    Hi,
    Just wondering if anyone is studing this at the moment or have studied it?
    Specifically the masters? Although there is an undergrad module so any info on that would be appreciated too!

    Just wondering what its like? Sounds like a really interesting course but I'm not sure what you can do when you finish? Besides further study/research.

    Thanks

    The CogSci undergrad module is class. I did it as an elective and found it really interesting. Lots of fascinating subjects covered, and Fred is a very enthusiastic and friendly lecturer. It really piqued my interested in the subject and has me considering doing the masters in the future. However as you mentioned, I don't think it leads to much career-wise... maybe something in artificial intelligence? Dunno.

    Anyways you can look at the course notes here

    Brilliant class, can't recommend it enough if you're interested in the mind, psychology, neuroscience, etc. It really brings it all together.
