CWI highly values education. CWI researchers not only supervise and inspire the CWI PhD students, but also aim at contributing to teaching Master's students at universities. See the overview of CWI's current involvement in teaching courses in the Netherlands below.
CWI is a research institute and does not have education as an institutional task. However, many of the senior researchers of CWI contribute to education via an affiliation or part-time appointment at one of the Dutch universities.
The courses they teach are listed below in chronological order, starting with the earliest upcoming course.
The course addresses which cognitive tasks can be executed by elementary networks, such as pattern recognition, classification of inputs in different categories and reward-dependent learning. This subject will be coupled to a discussion about the brain's capability to represent information in different modes, associated to either conscious or non-conscious processing.
