Mock Class: Human Factors Engineering and Engineering Psychology - When Art and Design Meet Science and Engineering

    Thursday, October 24, 2024 at 6:00 PM until 7:00 PMEastern Daylight Time UTC -04:00

    James Intriligator, Professor of the Practice, Mechanical Engineering

    “Human Factors Engineering” and “Engineering Psychology” are two interdisciplinary majors offered at Tufts. In fact, Tufts is home to the country’s oldest (and some say most-distinguished!) Human Factors programs. In this short course you will learn what “human factors” is all about. You will do this by first learning a tiny bit of history, then learning a bit of method, and THEN by doing a whole lot of design, and human-factors engineering. Come see how Human Factors Engineering and Engineering Psychology are creating, changing, and optimizing the world.
