Dear Prosody list supervisor, Brown University's Departments of Applied Mathematics, Cognitive and Linguistic Sciences, and Computer Science have just received a new NSF-supported Interdisciplinary Graduate Education, Research and training (IGERT) program, with support for Graduate Students. Could you please post the following message on your list. Thank you. Katherine Demuth Department of Cognitive and Lingusitic Sciences Brown University ------------- Brown University's Departments of Applied Mathematics, Cognitive and Linguistic Sciences, and Computer Science announce A NEW INTERDISCIPLINARY GRADUATE TRAINING PROGRAM in LEARNING AND ACTION IN THE FACE OF UNCERTAINTY: COGNITIVE, COMPUTATIONAL AND STATISTICAL APPROACHES Deadline for Applications: January 1, 1999 Brown University is actively recruiting graduate students for a new NSF-supported Interdisciplinary Graduate Education, Research and Training (IGERT) program in "Learning and Action in the Face of Uncertainty: Cognitive, Computational and Statistical Approaches". The use of probabilistic models and statistical methods has had a major impact on our understanding of language, vision, action, and reasoning. This training program provides students with the opportunity to integrate a detailed study of human or artificial systems for language acquisition and use, visual processing, action, and reasoning with appropriate mathematical and computational models. Students will be enrolled in one of the three participating departments (Applied Mathematics, Cognitive and Linguistic Sciences, and Computer Science) and will study an interdisciplinary program of courses in topics such as statistical estimation, cognitive processes, linguistics, and computational models. The aim of this program is to provide promising students with a mix of mathematical, computational and experimental expertise to carry out multidisciplinary collaborative research across the disciplines of Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, and Cognitive Science. Interested students should apply to the participating department closest to their area of interest and expertise, and should indicate their interest in the IGERT training program in their application. Brown University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer.
