Objectives of the Course The objective is to acquire knowledge—through a multidisciplinary research and development field—regarding the fundamental principles of system efficiency and human-machine-environment harmony, while considering human anatomical and anthropometric characteristics, as well as physiological capacities and tolerances, in the face of organic and psychosocial stresses that may arise from the various factors present in an industrial work environment; and, furthermore, to develop the ability to apply this knowledge practically within the workplace.
Course Content Taking into account human anatomical characteristics, body measurements, and physiological capacities and tolerances—as well as the organic and psychological reactions resulting from the influence of workplace layout and environmental variables—the fundamental principles of HUMAN-MACHINE-ENVIRONMENT compatibility...
