Centre for Cognitive and Brain Sciences, IIT Gandhinagar, has invited applications for admission to the M.Sc Programme in Cognitive Sciences, July 2021.

Cognitive Science is the study of the mind - how it comes to be, what it is, and what it does. Researchers and practitioners in cognitive science come from a variety of conventional academic disciplines. Computer scientists, psychologists, neuroscientists, linguists, philosophers have all contributed to this exciting synthesis of insight into how the mind works. These insights are all the more useful now in trying to construct artificial human-like systems.

Eligibility: Applicant should have a Bachelor’s degree (e.g. B.A., B.Sc., B.Tech, BCom, MBBS) in any discipline with a minimum of 55% (5.5 CGPA for students with letter grades/CGPA) aggregate marks for General/OBC category candidates and at least 50% (5.0 CGPA for students with letter grades/CGPA) aggregate marks for SC, ST and PD category candidates in the qualifying degree.

Those who would be completing Bachelor’s degree in the academic year 2020-21 are also eligible to apply.

The final selection will be based on academic records, aptitude for cognitive science, written test and interview.
