M. Sc. Computational Cognitive Science in Europe: best schools?

[PierreGian]

Hi all!

 

My name is Pierre. I am currently an Honours Cognitive Science at McGill (Montreal, Canada) with a minor in Computer Science. I have taken most of my classes in Comp. Sci and Neuroscience/Psychology with a few linguistics. I am also a French citizen, so I am able to pay local in all EU Universities in Europe. It seems to me that there are a lot of interesting Master's/Ph D programs in Europe in Cognitive Science and especially Computational Cognitive Science.

So far my choices in terms of Grad School are:

 

1) (UK) University of Edinburgh: School of Informatics - Master's in Cognitive Science:  http://www.ed.ac.uk/informatics/postgraduate/msc/msc-cognitive-science

 

2) (UK) University of Birmingham/M Sc in Computational neuroscience and Cognitive Robotics: http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/postgraduate/courses/taught/psych/computation-neuro-cognitive-robotics.aspx#CourseOverviewTab / http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/research/activity/cncr/index.aspx

 

3) (UK) University of Sheffield: MSc in Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience: http://www.shef.ac.uk/psychology/prospectivepg/masters/ccn_msc

 

4) (Netherlands) University of Groningen, Behavioral and Cognitive Neuroscience - C track: Cognitive Neuroscience and Cognitive Modelling: http://www.rug.nl/masters/behavioural-and-cognitive-neurosciences-research/programme 

 

5) (Ireland) University College Dublin - Master's Cognitive Science: http://cogsci.ucd.ie/masters.php

 

6) (Switzerland) ETH Zurich: Master in Neural systems and Computation: https://www.ethz.ch/en/studies/prospective-masters-degree-students/masters-degree-programmes/engineering-sciences/master-neural-systems-and-computation.html

 

7) (UK) UCL: Master's in Cognitive and Decision Sciences: http://www.ucl.ac.uk/pals/study/masters/TMSPSYSCDS01

 

What do you guys think of this list? Does anyone know any other programs in Europe (European Union, if possible) that might be interesting?

 

Thanks a lot!

Pierre
