Prospective graduate students with interests in Cognitive Science, especially in
learning and skill acquisition and in the relationship between cognition and
sociality, are encouraged to apply. Prospective applicants should have
background in computer science (the equivalent of a BS in computer science), and

with a Master's degree already completed are preferred.
RPI is a top-tier research university. This new CogSci department has
identified the Ph.D program and research as its primary missions. The department
is conducting research in a number of areas: cognitive modeling, human and
machine learning, multi-agent interactions and social simulation, neural
networks and connectionist models, human and machine reasoning, cognitive
engineering, and so on.
