DEVELOPMENT COGNITION

项目摘要

The mission of the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences is to promote an interdisciplinary approach to the study of intelligence, combining the substance and methods of experimental psychology and neuroscience with the formal analyses of linguistics and mathematics. Because two-thirds of the faculty in our department study problems of learning and development, the field of cognitive development is a major unifying intellectual focus. The proposed developmental training program is designed to give 6 predoctoral and 2 postdoctoral students the knowledge, skills and perspective they will need to pursue research careers in developmental cognitive science, through broad training in the multidisciplinary approaches to development represented by our department. The program emphasizes depth in a student's primary area of concentration. Trainees are expected to conduct research in the laboratories of at least two faculty members, preferably using methods derived from different subdisciplines to confront problems in a single cognitive domain. Trainees also will attend a multidisciplinary developmental seminar throughout their graduate or postdoctoral training. Predoctoral trainees will complete other required course work in the first two years, after which they will take qualifying exams. In succeeding semesters, trainees will choose from a flexible array of courses, seminars, and guided readings under the supervision of faculty advisors. Postdoctoral trainees will also be encouraged to attend seminars to broaden their empirical perspective on cognitive development, and they are expected to take an active role in seminars within their areas of specialization.

大脑和认知科学系的使命是促进智力研究的跨学科方法，将实验心理学和神经科学的实质和方法与语言学和数学的正式分析相结合。由于我们系三分之二的教师研究学习和发展的问题，认知发展领域是一个主要的统一的智力焦点。拟议的发展培训计划旨在通过我们部门代表的多学科发展方法的广泛培训，为6名博士前和2名博士后学生提供他们追求发展认知科学研究事业所需的知识，技能和观点。该计划强调学生集中的主要领域的深度。受训者应在至少两名教师的实验室进行研究，最好使用来自不同学科的方法来面对单一认知领域的问题。学员还将在整个研究生或博士后培训期间参加多学科发展研讨会。博士预科生将在头两年完成其他必修课程，之后他们将参加资格考试。在随后的学期，学员将选择从一系列灵活的课程，研讨会，并指导下的指导阅读指导教师顾问的监督。还将鼓励博士后学员参加研讨会，以拓宽他们对认知发展的经验观点，并期望他们在其专业领域的研讨会中发挥积极作用。
