The Department of Cognitive, Linguistic, and Psychological Sciences (CLPS)
at Brown University invites qualified applicants to apply to our Ph.D.
programs for the 2019-2020 academic year. Located in Providence, Rhode
Island -- a vibrant, affordable city close to Boston and New York -- Brown
University offers interdisciplinary training in developmental science in
state-of-the-art facilities. Successful applicants are guaranteed five
years of full tuition, stipend, summer funding, and research and travel
support.



The following faculty are available to train graduate students:

   - *Dima Amso* studies development of attention and memory in typical and
   atypical development using combined behavioral, genetic, and neuroimaging
   measures. http://research.clps.brown.edu/dcnl/
   - *Roman Feiman* studies conceptual development, language acquisition,
   and experimental semantics and pragmatics. His focus is on compositional
   meaning in language and thought. https://sites.brown.edu/bltlab/
   - *James Morgan* investigates cognitive and environmental underpinnings
   of early language acquisition, with particular focus on speech
   perception and spoken word recognition.  http://babies.brown.edu/
   - *David Sobel* examines the development of reasoning and social
   cognition in both formal and informal learning environments. Topics of
   interest include causal learning, children’s pretense, selective learning,
   and development of prosocial behavior.
