(syllabus)
The main objective of the course is to teach students about the new approach to the study of emotion, especially the methods
of cognitive neuroscience. Cognitive neuroscience has a major role in the development of theories of cognitive functions that
are based on the anatomical and functional characteristics of the human brain. Through the program, students will learn about
the cognitive operations that are an integral part of emotional processing.
