Cognitive science is a multidisciplinary approach to the study of the human mind.
That is we study systems capable of intelligent thinking, learning, creativity and understanding. One area, knowledge engineering, involves trying to capture an expert's knowledge in computer software, by developing an expert system that enables the computer to reproduce some of what a human expert would do. An example of this is developing a computer program that gives financial advice of the same quality that an expert would give. Studies at honours, masters and PhD levels are also available. Students study the same sequence of accredited subjects in psychology as do psychology majors, and complete a sequence of subjects in computer science.
