Cross-listed: Cognitive Science, Philosophy, Psychology

How do brains make minds?  Can computers think?  Is my dog conscious?  Cognitive science assumes that the brain is some sort of computational engine, and, beginning with that premise, attempts to find answers to such questions.  This course will be taught by faculty from biology, computer science, linguistics, philosophy, and psychology, who will combine their different approaches to explore how humans and other intelligent systems feel, perceive, reason, plan, and act.  In particular, the course will focus on the fundamental importance of language, signaling, and representation at many levels, from the neural to the organismal.  Laboratories will provide students with hands-on experience analyzing neural and behavioral data as well as with computational modeling.  Prerequisites: pre-calculus or its equivalent and a willingness to engage a broad variety of ideas and approaches from the natural, mathematical, and social sciences.  On-line registration
