Welcome to the Cognitive Science Department

In the last 30 years, research has surged in cognition affecting many fields including psychology, linguistics, philosophy, computing science, education, anthropology, communications, and sociology. The greatest impact within psychology has been the sub-fields of psycholinguistics, cognitive psychology, and developmental psychology; within philosophy, on philosophy of language, philosophical logic, and philosophy of mind; within linguistics, on semantics, syntax, phonology, and phonetics; and within computing science, on artificial intelligence.

Currently students can take a major, minor or honours BA in Cognitive Science at SFU.
