`As a student you are encouraged to get to know the ins and outs of a research topic by talking with professors in class or in the nearby pub over a drink'
The Research Master Brain and Cognitive Sciences in Amsterdam is one that emphasizes that research is dynamic, creative and interdisciplinary. As a student you are encouraged to get to know the ins and outs of a research topic by talking with professors in class or in the nearby pub over a drink. You are able to decide which direction you want to go in this field by choosing your own topics for research.
Last but not least: it also helps that the Master is filled with talented national and international students. Each of which have different backgrounds but all share a common ground: the interest in cognitive science. It's a pleasure and an honour to be able to work with so many talented students and teachers.
