Taught MSc Programme in Visual Cognition
The University of Edinburgh

A new MSc Programme in Visual Cognition based in Psychology at the
University of Edinburgh is now accepting applicants for 2008-2009. This
full-time one-year taught programme provides intensive, advanced
graduate-level study in the field of visual cognition and psychological
research methods, and forms a strong basis for further (typically PhD)
study. The programme is intended for post-graduate students in
psychology or related cognitive science disciplines who wish to pursue a
research-oriented career, or for students who need to retrain in
experimental psychology prior to applying to a related PhD programme.

The Visual Cognition MSc Programme draws on many disciplines within the
University, including Psychology, Philosophy, Computer Science and
Neuroscience. A central focus of the programme is a treatment of human
vision as an active process engaging sensory, cognitive, and
motor/action systems. The MSc programme at Edinburgh has special
strengths in real-world scene perception, vision and action, vision and
language, and the role and eye movements and attention in human vision.

Teaching in the Visual Cognition MSc Programme includes core courses in
Visual Attention, Visual Memory, Perception and Action, Research Design
and Methods, and Statistics. In addition students are given the
opportunity to specialise via optional courses such as Language and the
Visual World, Visual Word Recognition, and Working Memory in the Healthy
& Damaged Brain; and from a range of courses in computational vision and
visual neuroscience. The programme culminates in a supervised MSc
research project.
