Human factors

This course emphasizes designing technology that aligns with human perceptual and cognitive capabilities. Drawing from prior courses on neuroscience, sensory processing, and perception, students learn to design user-friendly, effective interfaces. Group assignments provide practical experience in creating technology that meets users’ needs and limitations, with applications across human-computer interaction, transportation, and medical interfaces. This course synthesizes physiological and psychological insights, preparing students for impactful work in human-centered design.

After completing this course, students should be able to:

• Explain behavioural processes that influence user interactions with products, systems, and services.
• Apply evaluation methods, usability metrics, and design cycle principles.
• Conduct usability testing and apply iterative design principles to technology applications
