RuCCS Colloquium

One of the primary goals of the Rutgers Center for Cognitive Science is to promote cross-disciplinary scholarship and research concerned with understanding aspects of intelligent action - in humans, in machines, and in the abstract. As part of this process, the Center sponsors distinguished visitors on both the short-term and long-term basis. These visitors typically present a summary of their research to the Rutgers community interested in Cognitive Science.

The RuCCS Colloquium Series is held in the Psychology Building, Room 101 on the Busch Campus at 1:00pm on selected Tuesdays, unless otherwise noted.

Lunch will be served in the RuCCS playroom (Room A139) before each talk at 12:00. Graduate students are especially invited to come and meet the speaker at this lunch.

Note: Talks are also announced by email (with reminders sent the day of the talk) to people who have requested to be placed on our announce list. If you would like to be added to our announce list contact Sue Cosentino ( suecos@ruccs.rutgers.edu ). If you would like more information on this talk series, please contact talks@ruccs.rutgers.edu.
