Cognitive science delves into the examination of human cognition, encompassing processes such as perception, cognition, thinking, knowledge representation, learning, and decision-making, as well as their neural implementations. Marked by interdisciplinarity, it integrates knowledge and methods from diverse fields including psychology, artificial intelligence, neuroscience, linguistics, philosophy, and others. With its innovative approach and emphasis on contemporary interdisciplinary topics such as artificial intelligence and behavioral economics, this program not only enriches academic understanding but also equips students with practical insights, preparing them for dynamics of the real business.

This distinctive study program is the outcome of collaborative efforts from five Central European universities: University of Vienna (in collaboration with the Medical University of Vienna), University in Ljubljana, University in Zagreb, Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, and Comenius University in Bratislava. As one of the successfully evolving multilateral master programs in Central Europe, its interdisciplinary and international nature significantly enhances the graduates' potential in both domestic and international job markets.
