Intro to EEG

(3 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

This is an introductory course on the technique of electroencephalography (EEG), commonly used in the discipline of cognitive neuroscience. Students will learn about the historical and theoretical bases of EEG, methods in which it is employed, and basic considerations of experimental design and analysis with EEG. The course is experiential in nature and involves hands-on demonstrations using a commercial four-electrode recording device. Over the course of the semester, students will design and execute their own experiment so that they can practice applying the skills they have learned. Previous coding experience is not required, but will be helpful.
