Interdisciplinary Thematic Program
Trans_Cognition
PT TransCOG
Training courses open to research on the brain and cognition, international partnerships and transfer to society
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE Thematic Program
Within the TransCoG Thematic Program, Master's degree programs in cognitive sciences, psychology, language sciences and philosophy pool their resources to offer a high-level interdisciplinary training program in cognitive sciences, supported by a broad research program on the brain and cognition. Our objective is to train to interdisciplinarity in cognition with an international perspective and a valorization in cognition, in all its forms.

DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSCOG THEMATIC PROGRAM
In Grenoble, Master's degree programs in cognitive sciences, psychology, language sciences and philosophy pool their resources to offer a high-level interdisciplinary training program in cognitive sciences, supported by a broad research program on the brain and cognition.
The program associates 5 master's degree courses at the University of Grenoble Alpes:
The "Natural and Artificial Cognition" program combines theories and techniques from engineering and information processing sciences with knowledge and issues from the human and social sciences; Contacts: marion.dohen@grenoble-inp.fr, julien.diard@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr, alan.chauvin@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr.
The "Research in Psychology" program trains researchers and teacher-researchers in all areas of the psychological sciences, with the possibility of obtaining the title of psychologist by completing a professional internship under the supervision of a psychologist; Contacts: richard.palluel-germain@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr, dominique.muller@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr.
The "Research in Neuropsychology and Clinical Neurosciences" program provides training in the theoretical bases of experimental methods in neuropsychology and cognitive neurosciences, in the anatomical and functional organization of cognitive functions, and in the physiopathological bases and innovative therapeutic approaches in human pathologies; Contacts: marcela.perrone-bertolotti@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr, carole.peyrin@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr.
The "Linguistics" program allows students to understand linguistic systems based on the observation and modeling of linguistic structures from field data (corpora, surveys), the study of linguistic structures in cognitive and social processes in adults and children, and the methods of linguistics (corpus linguistics, experimental phonetics and phonology, statistics); Contacts: cyril.trimaille@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr, agnes.tutin@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr, Anne.Vilain@gipsa-lab.grenoble-inp.fr, thi-thuy-hien.tran@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr
The "Cognitive Philosophy" program allows philosophy to contribute to the cognitive sciences. This course offers students the possibility of learning about the various disciplines that study cognition while acquiring a robust philosophical training on this question; Contacts: denis.perrin@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr, inga.roemer@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr.
Within the framework of the TransCoG Thematic Program, the 5 training paths open up for all students gateways enabling to build rich and diversified interdisciplinary paths. Some of these courses will be available in English, and a set of scholarships for foreign students and mobility grants to international laboratories will be opened within the framework of the new "Graduate School" of the Université Grenoble Alpes.
The Thematic Program integrates two specific courses, one in M1 and the other in M2, that students selected for the Program will have to take instead of two courses (one in M1, the other in M2) of their master's degree. The specific M1 course is based on a series of international seminars organized during the year in the framework of the site's partner laboratories, and accompanied by work in groups of students from several disciplines, supervised by a dedicated teacher. The specific M2 course is centered on a week of intensive training organized for the Thematic Program, focusing on a particular methodological issue, which differs each year and is taught each year by a researcher from an international partner laboratory.
The TransCoG Thematic Program relies on a set of research laboratories in cognitive and social psychology, language and education sciences, fundamental and cognitive neurosciences, philosophy, applied mathematics, computer science, engineering and information sciences, structured for the past 10 years around high-level interdisciplinary projects on Brain and Cognition; as well as on a set of societal openings towards the fields of health (clinical research, disabilities), education and business.
The application file is that of the master program chosen by the student, and must be sent to the secretariat of the corresponding master.
