Cognitive Science 2018
The Cognitive Science program at York University offered me a great range of study due to its diversity of subjects and the skill of the amazing professors. I graduated from the program in 2018, with my degree concentrating in Philosophy and Computer Science. During my time in the program, I participated in an international exchange in Madrid, did a yearlong internship, and completed a capstone project in my final year which resulted in a publication. The opportunities offered in this program definitely left me prepared for my career in academia.
I am currently pursuing a MSc in Computer Science here at York, where my research is focused on the uses of machine learning in music applications. My success in this field can be attributed to my studies in artificial intelligence during my time in the cognitive science program.
