The Institute of Cognitive Science
The Institute of Cognitive Science (ICS) at CU-Boulder has gained an international reputation for its promotion of interdisciplinary research and training in cognitive science. The institute is known for theory development and the application of those theories to real-world problems. The institute also houses four research centers, the Center for Lifelong Learning and Design (L3D), the Center for Computational Language and Education Research (CLEAR), the Center for Research on Training (CRT), and the Interdisciplinary Behavioral Science Center on the Determinants of Executive Function and Dysfunction (DEFD).
