Do you have info about cognitive science programs?
ie. interdisciplinary programs based on several of
    computersci / psychology / neurosci / linguistics / even philosophy / etc

Please drop me a few lines or pointers to info.  I will summarize and post.
I have read of a Cognitive Science Society.  Do they have a published list
of programs somewhere?  If so, where?



From what I understand, perhaps not accurately (please clarify):

MIT:
department of Brain and Cognitive Science

Brown:
department of Linguistics and Cognitive Science

Stanford:
Graduate Program in Cognitive Science
Psychology (organizing dept), Linguistics, Computer Science, Philosophy

UCSD:
interdisciplinary PhD in Cognitive Science exists
undergraduate program in Cog Sci currently offered by psychology
strengths in psychology, connectionism (though fading?), neurosci, linguistics
a real dept of Cognitive Science is in the works, perhaps for 88/89

UC Berkley:
Cognitive Science Program
focus on linguistics

Michigan:
defunct Program in Communications Sciences

Toronto:
Undergraduate Major in Cognitive Science and Artificial Intelligence

Princeton:
program of some sort?

Edinburgh:
department of Cognitive Science (formerly School of Epistemics)
focus on linguistics

Sussex:
School of Cognitive Science
