As humans, we may be intrigued by the complexity of any daily activity. How does it actually work to perceive, to act, to decide, and to remember? On the one hand, if we understand how our own intelligence works, we can use this knowledge to make computers smarter. On the other hand, by making computers behave more like humans, we learn more about how our own cognition works. Its purpose is twofold: to gain a better understanding of the neuro-cognitive basis of human cognition, and to further the realisation of human-like and user-friendly cognition in artificial systems. The AI Master's programme at Radboud University has a distinctly cognitive focus. This cognitive focus leads to a highly interdisciplinary programme where students gain skills and knowledge from a number of different areas such as mathematics, computer science, psychology and neuroscience combined with a core foundation of artificial intelligence. The Cognitive Computing specialisation focuses on using AI techniques for understanding human cognition and unravel the mysteries of the human brain.
Waarom aan de Radboud University Nijmegen?
- You will study exciting topics at the forefront of cognitive AI, such as brain-inspired computing, deep neural network technology, and the foundations of cognition.
- You can specialise to become an expert in machine learning, in computational neuroscience, or in formal and computational modelling.
- This specialisation is closely tied to the research done in the AI groups at the Donders Institute: You will have the opportunity to actively work with our staff members on research projects.
- You can combine this specialisation with another related programme, for example the Master's specialisation Data science and apply for an exemption of 60ECs.

Through this specialisation students will gain a better understanding of the neuro-cognitive basis of human cognition, and to advance the development of human-like and user-friendly cognition in artificial systems. Many of our students go on to perform PhD research in the Netherlands or abroad, filling positions at for instance the Institute for Computing and Information Sciences (ICIS) or the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour.Toelating en kosten
