[visionlist] Tuition-free MSc program Mind, Brain & Behavior in Giessen, Germany

[Karl Gegenfurtner]

Please forward to interested students:

Our Master’s program Mind, Brain and Behavior at Justus Liebig University Giessen, Germany, is inviting applications! 

Understanding human perception and behavior is one of the greatest challenges facing science. Fueled by recent advances in artificial intelligence, there is a growing need in numerous application areas for expertise in methods and models addressing this mystery. The program is designed to provide essential skills for a career in academia or industry in the fields of Psychology, Cognitive Neuroscience or the Behavioral Sciences. Courses are covering theory and practice in these fields, with hands-on training of key empirical methods (e.g., fMRT, EEG, measurements of eye and body movements, computer graphics, virtual reality, computational modelling and machine learning).
