I'd like to announce our cognitive psychology/neuroscience doctoral program call for applications, if that's okay with forum rules.
We're the Applied Cognitive and Brain Sciences (ACBS) doctoral program at Drexel University (Philadelphia, PA), inviting applications for Ph.D. students for the 2015-2016 AY.
Faculty research interests in the ACBS program span the full range from basic to applied science in Cognitive Psychology and Cognitive Neuroscience. The ACBS core and supporting faculty are experts in leading methodology such as computational modeling, Bayesian inference, SPM, high-dimensional statistics and data mining.
Accepted students will work closely with their mentor in a research-focused setting, housed in a newly-renovated, state-of-the-art facility featuring spacious graduate student offices and collaborative workspaces. Newly acquired equipment this year includes two high-density active electrode EEG systems; a high accuracy motion tracking environment; high accuracy head-mounted and table mounted eye trackers; and extensive lab space.
All core faculty are considering applications and we have several open funded slots this year. The ACBS core faculty are:
Graduate students will also have the opportunity to collaborate with faculty in Clinical Psychology, the School of Biomedical Engineering and Health Sciences, the College of Computing and Informatics, the College of Engineering, the School of Medicine, and the Expressive and Creative Interaction Technologies (ExCITe) Center. ACBS also has strong collaborative connections with UPenn, Temple and other nearby Universities.
Drexel University is located in the University City and Center City neighborhoods of Philadelphia, a major metropolitan area with numerous cultural, medical, educational, and recreational opportunities, as well as easy access via high speed rail to New York City, Washington, D.C., and surrounding areas of the Northeast Corridor. Drexel University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer. The College of Arts and Sciences is especially interested in qualified students who can contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community.
To apply: Applications are now being accepted, and the closing deadline is December 01, 2015. For complete application instructions, please see the following website: http://drexel.edu/coas/academics/gr...itive-brain-science/application-instructions/
