PhD - Doctor of Philosophy in Cognitive Psychology

SUNY University at Albany

In the Cognitive Psychology PhD program you will begin by taking foundation courses in cognition and statistics, followed by advanced seminar classes in your area of specialization. You will take 2 or 3 courses per semester during your first two years in our program, then focus on your own research during subsequent years. To provide flexibility and breadth, we offer courses that span a wide range of topics, including language processing, bilingualism, online communication, cognitive neuroscience, reasoning, problem-solving and conceptual thinking, memory, learning, perception, attention, visual cognition, signal detection theory, and models of speech perception and reading.
