UROP in Computational Cognitive Science

Dear Computational Cognitive Science Alumni,

I am looking for UROP students to work on a few projects related to the computational cognitive science of social behavior and cognition. Projects will be based around investigating how different representations of theory of mind (agents reasoning about other agents) can enable cooperation.

Ideal candidates should have strong coding abilities (Python, MATLAB or Javascript) and be willing to continue over the summer. If interested please send a resume/CV to maxkw@mit.edu with a sentence or two about your personal goals for the UROP and beyond.
