The University of Michigan is again offering a 2 week course on human
factors at the end of July. If you are interested in human factors,
ergonomics, human-computer interaction, or usability, this course will
give you the opportunity to get some excellent training from experts
in the field.
This two-week human factors course, now in its 50th year, concerns the
design of systems, products and services to make them easier, safer
and more effective for human use. The first week of the course
focuses on human factors concepts and is a broad survey of human
factors topics important to designers and researchers. Human-computer
interaction is the focus for week two of the course and presents an
overview of major topics and issues in human-computer interaction
through workshops on selected concepts, methods, and procedures that
provide the foundation for design of effective human-computer systems
and web applications.
