Teaching

At the Center for Cognitive and Decision Sciences we are committed to teaching evidence-based practices that can make individuals and groups make better, informed decisions. Our goals are to foster critical and independent thinking, improve data analytics skills, and train effective communication. We believe these abilities are crucial in today's society and central to any successful career in science or business. We contribute to these goals in our teaching of various lectures and seminars an, most of all, in our advising of BSc and MSc thesis and doctoral training.
