Institute of Cognitive Science

Cognitive scientists study cognition, perception and emotion ranging from abstract concepts at one end to well-defined empirical research on language and cognition and computer modelling at the other.

Carleton University offers you one of the few fully integrated programs in Cognitive Science in Canada. At Carleton, students will develop a solid foundation in the different elements that make up this field of study, and will also be able to specialize in an area of particular interest.

The ICS, in co-operation with the departments of Psychology, Philosophy, Linguistics, and Computer Science, offers both graduate and undergraduate programs.
