Add Cognitive Major (Security Studies) to my interest list
Offered By Faculty of Asian Studies
Academic Contact Dr Bina D'Costa
General Requirements for the Cognitive Major

The Cognitive major comprises 8 courses (48 units), of which at least 6 courses (36 units) must come from Faculty of Asian Studies offerings. The Cognitive major may not normally include more than 12 units at first-year level. The Cognitive major may include up to 12 units in relevant courses taught outside the Faculty, selected from those listed in the details section as relevant to the various fields of study, or other courses with the approval of the Sub Dean.

There is great flexibility in constructing this major and students are invited to select a field of study which best meets their academic need. Ideally the cognitive major will achieve two aims: it will support the study of a chosen Asian society, and it will give exposure to theoretical or disciplinary approaches.
