Abstract

Research in the newly emerged field of Augmented Cognition (AugCog) has demonstrated great potential to develop more intelligent computational systems capable of monitoring and adapting the systems to the changing cognitive state of human operators in order to minimize cognitive bottlenecks and improve task performance. As the AugCog field rapidly expands, an increasing number of researchers will be needed to conduct basic and applied research in this burgeoning field. However, due to its multidisciplinary nature and cutting-edge technological applications, most traditional academic disciplines cannot support the training needs of future AugCog researchers. Accordingly, an established Modeling and Simulation (M&S) graduate curriculum is described, which provides a broad basis of interdisciplinary knowledge and skills as well as depth of knowledge within a specific area of the M&S field. Support for use of the flexible M&S curriculum to provide the requisite multifaceted foundational training in Augmented Cognition principles is also presented. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
