Overview

Cognitive Science from University of Malta will then follow a Semester-by-Semester plan. The first semester will use a traditional, parallel study-units structure to provide a comprehensive introduction to theory and practical methods across a range of Cognitive Science topics. The second semester will use a series of “block” study-units to provide more focused and detailed exposure to specific areas of research in which you are exposed to the latest trends in this highly active area.

Career:

The programme provides a strong interdisciplinary background in understanding the brain, human cognition, and behaviour which is excellent preparation for careers dealing with neuromarketing, user experience (UX), user interface (UI), data science, human factors, behavioural analyses, human resources, rehabilitation, education and communications.

You may choose to further your education by writing a Masters’ level dissertation, or enrol in an alternative postgraduate course that will allow you to use your transferable skills and knowledge for a more holistic education.
