Established in 1991, the Rutgers Center for Cognitive Science (RuCCS) is one of the most internationally recognized cognitive science centers in the world and promotes interdisciplinary scholarship in computational approaches to cognition. The Center has 35 faculty members and over 35 faculty associates from a diverse array of academic departments - most commonly from Psychology, Philosophy, Linguistics, and Computer Science. RuCCs has been committed to bringing together researchers across the core disciplines of cognitive science to investigate cognitive and linguistic development, and the nature of our early representations. In doing so, we seek to identify universals, foundations of more complex representations, how the process of acquisition and learning unfolds, and a baseline against which we can make comparisons for developmental variations in the five tracks we offer: Cognitive Neuroscience, Decision Making, Language, Minds, Machines and Computation, and Perception. The permanent budget of the Center provides for post-doctoral fellowships, faculty visitorships, a visiting speaker series, and scholarly workshops and conferences. The Center offers a graduate certificate and an undergraduate major in cognitive science.
