Knowledge Technology and Intelligent Internet Applications
This Master programme contains elements so that the graduate student has a good overview of the contemporary literature regarding applications of intelligent websites and intelligent agents on the Internet. Furthermore, the student learns techniques and methods from Artificial Intelligence that are used in Internet applications. The master graduate student is a capable designer of intelligent websites, and applications based on intelligent agents. The student ensures that his/her designs respect the needs of the company for which the design is meant.
An increasingly number of companies starts to document knowledge in the company with the use of knowledge acquisition and knowledge modelling techniques from AI. By doing this, the conduct of business is being simplified. Also with change processes in companies, automated knowledge intesive methods can be used, togehter with elemnts from economics and organisation psychology. For graduates, this is a multi-disciplinary field of labour. Via company internships and company funded resarch projects there is a good contact with the industry.

Cognitive Science
Cognitive Science is the multi-disciplinary study of mind and cognition. Researchers in Cognitive Science come from a wide range of backgrounds -- including psychology, computer science, artificial intelligence, philosophy,
mathematics, neuroscience, and others -- but share the common goal of a better understanding of the human mind. The programme focuses around two main areas of study, the areas
behavior and
brain, and two research perspectives:
empirical work and
computational modelling. The underlying philosophy of the programme is to challenge students to be knowledgeable in and sympathetic to a wide variety of fields and techniques. For example, there are courses in experimentation, computational modelling, and the neurobiological basis of cognition. More specifically, the curriculum includes lectures and practical work (some of which are subject to choice) on subjects such as Vision, Attention, Neural Models of Cognitive Processes,
Dynamics of Behavior, Neural Networks, Machine Learning, Brain Imaging, Emperical Method, Statistics, Cognitive Neuroscience, Multi-Agent Systems, and Psycholinguistics.
First year
Psychology (BSc) students must also follow optional courses for a total of 5 cp and also deficiency courses for a total of 31 cp.
AI (BSc) students must also follow optional courses for a total of 18 cp and also deficiency courses for a total of 18 cp.
