PSYC 390 - Human Factors and Work Methods Units: 4 Human Factors principles utilized for design of tools, jobs, environments and work methods. Human dimensions, capabilities and limitations, including anthropometric, perceptive and cognitive, inform human-centered designs. Case studies illustrate good/poor designs. Principles applied in course projects, exercises and simulations.
Strongly Recommended Preparation: Upper division status (greater than 60 earned semester units) and completion of lower division Areas B1-B3. Prerequisites: Completion of GE Areas A1, A2, A3 and B4 with grade C- (CR) or better; and INDE 330 or STAT 100. Possible Instructional Methods: On-ground. Grading: A-F grading only. Cross-listed: INDE 390. Course Typically Offered: Variable Intermittently
Student Learning Outcomes - Upon successful completion of this course students will be able to:
- Apply anthropometric data and modeling techniques to engineering design of physical objects
- Design work systems for assembly tasks
- Utilize and apply taught techniques and tools in a design project to address contemporary user needs, and effectively communicate design results orally, visually and in writing
