Welcome to the
Georgia Tech Chapter of the Human
Factors & Ergonomics Society!
Have you
ever wondered why it's so hard to
set the time in your car or why an iPod is so easy to use? Have you
wondered why using a particular brand of
product is so much easier to use
compared to another product with the
same features and capabilities?
If you
have, then you've asked questions
related to the field of Human Factors.
Human Factors researchers and
practitioners are interested in
questions similar to these as they
relate to both simple and complex
systems.
The
Georgia Tech Chapter of the Human
Factors & Ergonomics Society is a
multi-disciplinary club interested in
learning about and understanding human
capabilities and limitations and
applying that knowledge to the design of
technologies and systems. Learn more
about us.
We Need a Logo!
If you have an
idea for a great logo design for the
Chapter, please send the idea to
Ken.
The best logo will be chosen for our
website, our correspondence, and our
shirts!
