MSc / Phd in Cognitive Science

I'm a final year computer science student with an interest in human computer interaction (HCI), Usability etc. I'm hoping to do a masters and maybe a phd in the future in a related are.

Thank you!

The course website has all the info you need, or as mentioned email Fred Cummins for more information

I took the Introduction to Cognitive Science elective module a few years ago and found it fascinating. The Masters would presumably be more technical, detailed and focused, but it looks great too.
