Bachelor's Degree - Psychology
Cognitive Psychology via distance learning
Despite the phenomenal advances we have reached in our understanding of the nervous system, many fundamental questions concerning the relation between the brain and the mind remain unanswered. Examples of these questions include: How are memories stored and retrieved? How is sensory input converted to subjective perception? Is the brain a general-purpose learning machine or a toolbox of innate and specialized processors? This program reviews the methods, findings, and controversies of the cognitive neuroscience and psychology. A comparative and developmental perspective will be adopted to study the theories of human cognition and brain evolution, using data obtained from animals and young children.
