Description
Cognitive science is a cross-disciplinary research effort dedicated to understanding the mind. It investigates the nature of cognition, perception, feeling, and action. Typical research in cognitive science might involve the empirical study of intelligent behavior, computational modeling of some aspect of cognition or consciousness, or conceptual inquiry into the foundations of our ideas about the mind. Hence, the methods of cognitive science are as wide-ranging as the disciplines they comprise. These include philosophy, psychology, computer science, linguistics, mathematics, and neurosciences. Cognitive scientists also work in such disciplines as education, speech, anthropology, literature, history, biology, law, and business.
