Abstract

Cognitive science is an interdisciplinary field that draws from anthropology, computer science, linguistics, philosophy, and psychology to explain how the mind works. This course seeks to provide students with an overview of the field, with a focus on those issues that are of particular relevance to philosophy. To do this, we’ll look at some of the most important philosophical debates that have taken place within cognitive science over the past fifty years. Some of these debates are “settled” (or, at least, people have moved on), while others are not. Topics include but are not limited to: intentionality; weak and strong AI; consciousness; reductionism; counterfactual reasoning; evolution and cognition; animal cognition; and innateness. There are no prerequisites for the course.
