Cognitive Neuroscience - Mind and Brain University of Skövde

Overview

The University of Skövde's Cognitive Neuroscience - Mind and Brain programme provides a sound basis for research and teaching at a higher level within cognitive neuroscience. It requires ongoing, focused studies over the course of a year (two consecutive semesters).

The programme began in 2011, and has already achieved strong academic results

Students at The University of Skövde:

• have continued their studies after graduating at second- or third-cycle level at various universities, both in Sweden and abroad, including Max Planck Society, University College London, the Karolinska Institute, KU Leuven, the École Normale Supérieure, and the University of Bern.

• are encouraged to take part in our research activities and be involved in presentations and publications of their research findings. Most senior members of teaching staff at the department also carry out active research, in some cases as part of major research projects and with international collaborators.
• used this opportunity to write their thesis also at other institutions in Sweden such as the University of Gothenburg, Linköping University, or Karolinska Institute. We are in contact with other research groups as well, which may offer an opportunity for a degree project.
