Over deze opleiding
In Philosophy of Mind and Science you study problems such as mental causation and phenomenal consciousness from the viewpoint of neurophenomenenology and the embodied embedded cognition paradigm.
Philosophy of mind and cognition touches on some of the most profound questions about ourselves: What is it to have a mind? How is our mind realized by our brain? What is consciousness? How can our mental states drive our actions? Do we have free will? What is that makes (most) human beings persons?
Traditionally philosophy of mind is part of the analytical tradition in philosophy. Recently, however, a more phenomenological approach to typical questions in the philosophy of mind has provided a refreshing new look on old topics. Also, the advance of cognitive neuroscience is leaving its trace in the way old questions are posed and answered. Philosophy of Mind and Cognition in Nijmegen combines traditional analytical theorizing with insights from phenomenology and the empirical sciences.
