Postgraduate Degrees

• Research postgraduate students in PAICS are typically working towards a philosophy-based DPhil (a PhD equivalent) in Cognitive Science in the School of Informatics. Most of the them are supervised by Ron Chrisley.  Applicants to the DPhil program have a good undergraduate and/or Master degree in philosophy or a cognitive science-related discipline.
• Ron is also the director of the MA in the Philosophy of Cognitive Science. The MA programme, which was started in 1992 by Andy Clark, is now accepting applications for Autumn 2011 entry. Students applying to the MA program normally have a good undergraduate degree in Philosophy.

If you are interested in joining PAICS to do either the MA or DPhil (PhD) have a look at the links above and/or get in contact with Ron.

Funding Opportunities:

• The University has a postgraduate scholarships and bursaries page which may provide some useful information for both UK/EU and overseas students.
