- Emphasizes and addresses human sensory and motor performance, information processing, learning and training methodology, skilled-task development, psychophysical models, response time, and relevant aspects of attention and memory.
- Topics include system design and development, hazard and error evaluation, and properties of effective visual displays.
- Endorses experimentation as a source of knowledge of human performance characteristics.
- Covers research and statistical analyses related to human-asset engineering, fundamentals of vision, audition, somesthesis, signal detection, and some aging effects.
- Safety and usability of environments, machines, products, and devices consider principles of human-machine interaction, decision making, and anthropometric characteristics.
- Laboratory experiences include literature review, experimental design, data collection and analysis, hypothesis testing, and generation of reports to inform the design of safe, usable, and marketable engineering products, processes, and systems.
