language).
- Cognitive Neuroscience. Perception (Psych 30), Learning
and Memory (Psych 45), Introduction to Cognitive Neuroscience (Psych
50) [if not taken for the core], or Cognitive Neuroscience (Psych 202).

completed for the core, this requirement may be replaced by a fourth
course from area 4 below or by 3-4 units of graded laboratory research
in cognition.)
