In a large packed hall at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, we presented our joint graduate program in Applied Cognitive Science in front of hundreds of interested students, the public and academia.

The program will enrol the first cohort of 30 students in the fall of the Academic Year 2023/24 and it was presented by the heads of the MA program - Associate Professor Renata Geld from the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences and Associate Professor Dario Bojanjac from the faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, following an opening lecture given by a cognitive scientist and visiting professor Todd Oakley.

The event was attended by over 300 students, undergraduates, graduates, employers, professors and media reps.

September 22-23, 2023 in Budapest, Hungary.

Students are encouraged to participate in a conference that aims to demonstrate the links between cognitive sciences and infocommunications by discussing topics like:

• Artificial cognitive capabilities
• Human cognitive interfaces & Human-Computer and Bio-Interfaces
• Cognitive sciences in the digital world
• Cognitive networks and their intelligent capabilities
• Digital transformation environment for education
• Cognitive Data Visualization

The new graduate program in Applied Cognitive Science - Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Zagreb partnered with FER - is based on Standard of occupation and Standard of qualification designed in collaboration with employers✅ and innovation hubs✅.

Our MA in Applied Cognitive Science is officially registered and listed as an accredited graduate program at the University of Zagreb. MA in Applied Cognitive Science is accredited to be taught both in English and Croatian.

Our Program in Applied Cognitive Science boasts a list of over 40 courses and over 30 faculty members from the CogSci hexagon on linguistics, psychology, artificial intelligence, philosophy, neuroscience and anthropology, as well as several subdisciplines and interdisciplines.

A few years ago, we were "just talking" about cognitive science.

We are working now.

We are teaching soon.

Watch Treći element on YouTube. The episode is dedicated to cognitive science and features Professor Jan Šnajder, Associate professor Renata Geld, and Professor Miloš Judaš.

Our AppCogSci courses are designed to help you develop transferable skills and disciplinary & interdisciplinary competences that will make you competitive on the international job market. You will work on projects in interdisciplinary peer teams, learn how to collaborate and innovate, and start building bridges with employers.

Cognitive science is one of the most complex and fastest growing interdisciplines in the world. Its basic goal is to investigate and describe the complexities of the human mind. It consists of the hexagon of the following disciplines: linguistics, psychology, artificial intelligence, anthropology, neuroscience, and philosophy. The applications of cognitive science and career pathways are numerous.
