Consciousness
9 units (3-0-6)  | second term
Prerequisites: None, but strongly suggest prior background in philosophy of mind and basic neurobiology (such as Bi 150).

One of the last great challenges to our understanding of the world concerns conscious experience. What exactly is it? How is it caused or constituted? And how does it connect with the rest of our science? This course will cover topics related to consciousness in the philosophy of mind, cognitive psychology, and cognitive neuroscience in a mixture of lectures and in-class discussion. Limited to 20.
