The dual-major undergraduate program in statistics with a specialization in data and brain sciences
The program offers comprehensive training in computational models of psychological and biological systems, with a specific focus on the nervous system. It combines theoretical courses in mathematics and statistics with practical research experience in psychology and brain research labs. This helps to gain deep insights into brain sciences that contribute to innovative research.
The program offers the best of both worlds, with integrated courses from the departments of Statistics, Cognitive Sciences, and the School of Psychology. Program graduates can integrate into various fields that combine statistics, data processing, and brain sciences: as data analysts in the field of big data at leading technology companies, applying advanced methods for processing and analyzing massive amounts of data. As experts in brain data analysis and cognitive process control in companies developing innovative technologies in cognitive sciences, robotics, and artificial intelligence. As part of research teams in hospitals and life sciences institutes for understanding brain processes and various neurological diseases.
Additionally, there is the option to pursue advanced degrees and integrate into the academic research field, and in the future, also join the academic staff at higher education institutions in faculties of brain sciences, statistics, software engineering, and data sciences at leading universities, while developing innovative methods and tools for data analysis and brain research.
