Cognitive Science Interest (COSI- BS)

Curriculum Guide

Department Website

It is anticipated that most graduates of the program will seek postgraduate training in order to satisfy their professional aspirations.  In order to ensure that students interested in cognitive science (and related fields like linguistics, speech science, speech pathology, language development, audiology, human perception and computational modeling, among others) will be admitted to the best graduate schools, students will only be formally admitted to the program based on their college GPA.  During the freshman year students may declare a Cognitive Science Interest Major, but admission to the program as a Cognitive Science Major requires the completion of at least 28 credits of study.  Once in the program, students whose current (not cumulative) GPA for required courses and courses with CGSC and LING designations falls below 3.0 will be placed on probation.  If their current GPA for required courses and courses with CGSC and LING designations is not raised to 3.0 by the end of the following semester, students will be dropped from the major.
