Can you just imagine it: our MA in Applied Cognitive Science has successfully crossed the Atlantic! Students and postdocs at Case Western Reserve University had the opportunity to engage with our presentation and learn more about our exciting program.

This achievement was made possible by the gracious support of our hosts, Professors Fey Perill, Vera Tobin, and Mark Turner. A special thanks also goes to Professor Dario Bojanjac and Filip Turcinovic for their dedicated efforts in making this visit a success!

Our students dedicated their last class to presenting their final projects carried out in their Introduction to Anthropology course. They presented the EPlaG - Educational Platform for Genetics project on Monday, January 20, 2025.
The project was developed in collaboration with Genom d.o.o. and Genkonekt, and we were lucky that the director of Genom and head of Genkonekt, Dr. Maja Barbalić, was there to offer insightful conclusions!

Thank you to everyone who attended and made this event unforgettable! 🎉✨

We are happy to see our second generation of CogSci students thriving and pitching reasons to study cognitive science at FER's DOV.

Through the partnership between the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences and FER, we are making strides in understanding both humans and machines. 🧠
We have come such a long way over the last couple of years!

We are so glad to see students using their teamwork, creativity and eagerness to make a difference! Our brilliant students have won an award in one of the categories for this year’s i-Days event with the organisation EIT Health, which aims to enable citizens to lead healthier and more productive lives. Their ideas were related to how AI can help elderly citizens with the battle against loneliness.

Go Team: Danica Drincic, Katarina Ivić, Neven Zenko and Kristina Vrdoljak! 🎓
