Cognitive science investigates mental processes like perception, reasoning, memory, focus, language, decision-making, visualization, movement coordination, and problem-solving. In essence, cognitive science aims to comprehend the workings of the human mind. This field naturally bridges multiple disciplines, incorporating methods and concepts from psychology, computer science, linguistics, philosophy, economics, and neuroscience. Research methods encompass studying cognitive skill development across species and individuals, conducting adult cognition experiments, analyzing cognitive impairments to understand normal functioning, creating computational models and robots to mimic cognitive behaviors, exploring brain activity through neural imaging techniques, and formulating philosophical frameworks about consciousness.

Qualification Requirements

Request recommendations from two teachers who have taught you in core academic subjects (e.g. English, Foreign Language, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies) who know you well, and who have seen you at your best. It is preferable, but not required, that recommendations come from teachers who have taught you during your final or next-to-final year of secondary school. Your counselor or other school official should submit a School Report with an official transcript that includes all your secondary school courses. If a question on the School Report form is not applicable to your secondary school, leave it blank. In response to the extraordinary circumstances associated with the pandemic, Yale is temporarily suspending its requirement that first-year and transfer applicants submit results from the ACT or SAT. The change will be in effect during the 2020-21 and 2021-22 admissions cycles for applicants who intend to matriculate in fall 2021 or fall 2022. 100 on the internet-based TOEFL. 25 on each of the three sections of the paper-and-pencil TOEFL Paper-delivered Test.
