Our PhD program provides full-time, in-person training and close mentorship in various areas of cognitive science and in the formal methods that pertain to them. We apply a holistic approach to the review of applications and give careful consideration to all the credentials presented by applicants, including academic qualifications obtained in a wide variety of institutions, skills, and experiences that facilitate degree completion and a successful postgraduate career. This results in a diverse group of graduate students, with a sample of different profiles exemplified below:

Example Profiles of Candidates

  • Candidates holding baccalaureate or master’s degrees in cognitive science or one of the traditional sub-disciplines (psychology, computer science, linguistics, neuroscience, and philosophy). Such candidates have typically engaged in previous research in one of those sub-disciplines. They are strongly theoretically oriented and their interests in cognitive science are broad. In addition to perfecting their training in one of the sub-disciplines under a close mentorship, they also wish to be trained in methodologies of other sub-disciplines and to produce an integrated body of interdisciplinary research.
  • Candidates with no degree in cognitive science or one of the traditional sub-disciplines but one in a formal discipline, such as mathematics, physics, applied mathematics, etc. Such candidates have some knowledge of what cognitive science is about and wish to apply their formal training to an interdisciplinary study of the mind. Upon admission, they are encouraged to do some background readings before the fall of their admission year. Such students typically take a relatively heavy range of courses across the cognitive sciences during their first year in the PhD program to fill in their background.
  • Candidates with no degree in cognitive science or one of the traditional sub-disciplines but one in a related or applied field (e.g., education, foreign languages).  Such candidates have some knowledge of what cognitive science is about and may, for example, have done a summer internship in a psychology-related lab or have taken a few linguistics courses at a summer institute. Upon admission, they are encouraged to do some background readings before the fall of their admission year. Such students typically take a relatively heavy range of courses across the cognitive sciences during their first year in the PhD program to fill in their background.

We strongly encourage candidates from traditionally marginalized or underrepresented groups to apply. Our department is committed to supporting diversity . Johns Hopkins offers professional development, fellowships and resources to support graduate students from diverse backgrounds and experiences. See more.

What is Cognitive Science?

Cognitive Science is the interdisciplinary study of the mind, as determined jointly by the nature of the environment and by the internal architecture of the intelligent agent, whether human, nonhuman animal, or machine. A mind incorporates some form of mental representation and cognitive processes that create, act on, and manipulate these representations. Topics of central concern may include but are not limited to perception, action, learning, memory, knowledge of our own and other minds, concepts, language, reasoning, decision making, problem solving, inference, imagination, and emotion.

Cognitive science is an interdisciplinary field that has emerged during the past few decades at the intersection of a number of existing disciplines, including psychology, linguistics, computer science, philosophy, anthropology, and neuroscience. Previously, each discipline sought to understand the mind from its own perspective, benefiting little from progress in other fields. With the advent of Cognitive Science, however, theoretical insights and methodologies have been shared among disciplines, and interdisciplinary interaction has become the hallmark of the field. It is a field founded on the principle that new knowledge should be developed at the intersection among disciplines, and that collaboration will serve to preserve and strengthen all participating disciplines.

Career Exploration

What can i do with a cognitive science degree.

There is no limit to what you can do with a B.A. in Cognitive Science. In fact, this degree is great for students who have eclectic interests and may want to have several different career options available to them. 

Most commonly, students with a degree in cognitive science go on to pursue fields such as machine learning, human centered (UX) design, software design/development, etc. They may also go on to pursue advanced degrees in cognitive science, neuroscience, computer science, etc. Others may go on to attain professional degrees such as medicine or law. The options are as endless and wide as the imagination itself. 

Historically, Cal students in this major have gone on to become: 

  • Research analysts
  • Product developers/designers
  • UX designers
  • Software developers
  • Linguistic analysts
  • Data analysts
  • HR specialists
  • Founders of their own start-ups

And those looking to continue their education by getting an advanced degree (i.e., M.A. or Ph.D.) have gone into programs such as: 

  • Clinical Psychology
  • Cognitive Science
  • AI and Robotics
  • Computer Engineering
  • Education Neurobiology
  • Medical School

As you can see, there is a wide variety of careers and continuing education that one can pursue with a B.A. in cognitive science. It really depends on your specific interests and how you want to apply what you have learned to your career. Check out the  Career Center's First Destination Surveys  to see where our students go. 

What if I change my mind? How will I know if I'm qualified for my new field?

To determine whether or not you have the experience necessary for a particular field would be to research, research, research. By finding the job description(s) of your dream, you can identify the skills and qualifications that are required for the position. It is also important to note that you do not have to hit every job requirement perfectly––e.g., if a position requires someone with a psych background and you have focused your CogSci degree in psychology, you can illustrate that with your cover letter. As students with an interdisciplinary degree, you may have to get creative with how you are able to market yourself and this may make you a stronger candidate in the long run. 

Moreover, if you are interested in continuing your education in a field different from cognitive science you may not necessarily need to change your major or get another bachelor’s degree. Again, research different programs to see if what they are looking for in prospective students. Some programs may not even want you to have a relevant background (e.g., some counseling psychology Ph.D. programs would prefer their students to have a background in a non-psychology field; one way to find out whether or not a program will admit students with a similar background you can ask, “Historically, what have been the undergraduate majors of students admitted to this program?”). Where other programs may have pre-requisite courses (e.g., medical schools often require specific courses before entry, however they do not require a degree in biology related fields––in fact, some programs even encourage students from variant educational backgrounds), you may still be able to fulfill these requirements through post-baccalaureate programs designed to prepare you for your next steps. There are so many paths to take!

The possibilities are broad and endless. 

How the Tang Center’s Career Counseling Library can help you:

One way to help you figure out what career may be right for you would be to go over a career assessment with the career counseling interns at the Tang Center. There, they can help you identify what careers may be potentially satisfying and clarify what you want from your career. 

Career Counseling Library - signing up for a Eureka.org account is a great way to explore career options and how to get there. It also has a list of programs for different degrees in the U.S. (if you are looking to study abroad for your M.A. or PhD, you will need to search elsewhere).

A Career in Cognitive Psychology

Pursuing a Career in Brain Science and Cognitive Psychology

Brain science and cognitive psychology focuses on how individuals learn, process and store information.

All About Brain Science and Cognition

When you meet new people, why do you remember some names but not others? This is an example of a question that psychologists working in brain science and cognition seek to answer through their research.

These psychologists spend most of their time studying human thought processes and the capacity for understanding, interpreting and retaining information. They may choose to work in one particular specialty, such as memory or learning disabilities, or they may focus their career on a specific health issue or population.

Psychologists working in this field apply psychological science to address a wide variety of issues that affect a spectrum of populations. They work with infants and toddlers to address behavioral problems and developmental disorders. They work with adults to address memory disorders, substance use and health-related problems. Others study the brain’s capacity to do tasks, handle multiple demands or recover from injury.

In their work, many of these psychologists will drill down into intricacies such as how music therapy can help heal degenerative brain disorders or how quickly humans can learn a new language. Some study how the brain interprets smells. Others are working to decode the human brain .

What You Can Do

Most psychologists working in brain science and cognition spend their careers in a university setting where they teach or conduct research or both. However, there has been significant growth in other areas, such as human-computer interaction, software development and organizational psychology. This growth has opened new job opportunities in the private sector.

Cognitive psychologists can also work in clinical settings to help treat issues related to human mental processes, including Alzheimer’s disease, speech issues, memory loss, and sensory or perception difficulties. These psychologists will often work in government and private research centers and treatment facilities, such as hospitals and mental health clinics, and as consultants or expert witnesses for court cases. Private practice is also an option for psychologists working in this field.

Making It Happen

While there are some entry-level opportunities available to those with a bachelor’s degree, most careers in brain science and cognitive psychology begin with a master’s or doctoral degree.

For psychologists with a master’s degree, career options exist in human performance research, such as testing how well a person who has not slept for many hours can remember a short story. They may also work in industrial and organizational psychology, and some with master’s degrees may be hired for certain teaching positions. Most of the work of master’s level professionals will be supervised by a doctoral level psychologist.

Most psychologists with doctoral degrees in brain science and cognition teach and conduct research in academia.

What You Can Earn

The earnings for psychologists working in brain science and cognition vary based on degree, position and experience. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, brain science and cognitive psychologists working as industrial and organizational psychologists earned more than $114,040 a year on average with a median annual salary of $87,330 in 2010. The American Psychological Association found that median annual salaries for brain science and cognitive psychologists employed at universities averaged $76,090 in 2009.

While demand for brain science and cognitive psychologists has fluctuated, the subfield is on the rise. As technology becomes more advanced and cures to health issues like Alzheimer’s disease continue to be evasive, the demand for psychologists specializing in brain science and cognition is expected to increase.

The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)

<< Previous page

Pages:  379-406

In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E. Kilunovskaya and V. A. Semenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.
