Cognitive science is the study of complex information processing in humans and machines and includes the multidisciplinary study of biological and artificial systems. Such systems can range from people and animals to web search engines, computers, and robots. The field requires diverse multidisciplinary approaches to understanding these systems, which incorporates research from experimental psychology, neuroscience, machine learning, linguistics, computer science, mathematics, and bioengineering.

UT Dallas’ multidisciplinary cognitive science program offers a variety courses intended to provide a strong foundation in multiple areas of knowledge. Cognitive science students may choose to specialize in two of the following three areas: neuroscience, psychology/human computer interactions, and computational modeling/artificial intelligence.
