I am interested in learning different views about skills necessary for a good human factors professional/engineer. Where have views along these lines (possibly in the form of curriculum discussions) been published? What skills do you perceive as essential? Which universities have programs that, when listed, provide an answer to my question? What requirements for human factors specialists have been specified in the company for which you work? ????? ---------------------------------- R. I.

The best source of this information might be the directory of graduate programs in human factors which was published by the Human Factors Society. I know that this directory (which was prepared in 1985) is presently being updated. I believe that the correct person to contact is Lois Smith, Publications Manager, Human Factors Society, P.O. Box 1369, Santa Monica, CA 90406, or call (213) 394-9793. ____ ______ _____ _____===== Bill Hefley / __ \ | _____| |_ _| _____========= Software Engrg Institute | |__|_| | |__ | | _____============= Carnegie Mellon _\___ \ | __| | | _____================= Pittsburgh, PA 15213 | |__| | | |____ _| |_ _____============= (412) 268-7793 \____/ |______| |_____| _____========= ARPA: weh@sei.cmu.edu -----===== BITNET: weh%sei.cmu.edu CSNET: weh%sei.cmu.edu@ relay.cs.net C a r n e g i e M e l l o n U n i v e r s i t y +---------------------------- Disclaimer -------------------------------+ | The views expressed herein are my own and do not necessarily reflect | | those of my employer. | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
