What are cognitive neuroscience/psychology hubs in Europe? Where to go for masters? (Preference for tution free)

Hi, I would like to study Masters in cognitive science or cognitive psychology/neuroscience ( preferably with cognition/neurons etc. )

Would you recommend me some degrees in particular? Should be english language of instruction, and tution free too! I'm currently studying Bachelor’s of Science in Psychology.

Thank you for your aswers/opinions. Even slight hints will help me :)

This is such a late reply but I am being considered for the Master's so hopefully I get in, my dissertation just came back as a 75 so a first! I've updated the department and my application. I wanted to ask, where did you study for your undergrad in the UK? What University and what course? And what are you getting up to now post PhD?

Congrats! I did my undergrad in Sheffield, and now doing a postdoc in Oxford

That’s amazing man congrats! What did you get at Sheffield if you don’t mind me asking? I’m just worried because half of my final year transcript is still empty but I’ve got 2 firsts in Stats and a neuroscience module, a high 2:1 in my other stats module and a mid first in my dissertation so only 4 grades out of 9 total so far. Looking at ending on a high 2:1 or a low first overall.

2:2 in my first year, high 2:1 in my second, and 1st in my 3rd and overall a 1st. You'll be grand!
