The PhD in Cognitive Informatics (Doctorat en informatique cognitive) at Université du Québec à Montréal is an interdisciplinary programme combining problems in cognitive science with applications in computer science, training specialists in cognitive modelling across three research axes: the genesis and acquisition of knowledge, the modelling of knowledge and problem-solving strategies, and the communication of knowledge. It draws on a multidisciplinary faculty and allows for co-supervised theses and access to research laboratories. The programme totals 90 credits, completed over a nominal four years full-time (six years part-time). Admission requires a master's degree, or the equivalent, in a humanities discipline such as linguistics, philosophy, psychology, education, communication, or management, or in computer science or information technology, completed with a cumulative average of at least 3.2 on a 4.3 scale; a bachelor's degree holder may very exceptionally be admitted with appropriate knowledge and relevant research experience, subject to committee review. Applicants must name two co-supervisors and submit a research proposal, a CV, and a motivation letter, and must demonstrate sufficient knowledge of French and English, which may be verified by a test. Courses are offered during the day.
