Overview
Human Systems Engineering describes a growing transdisciplinary field consisting of the disciplines of psychological sciences and engineering. This field explores how people interact with technological and social systems in contexts that include transportation, medicine, military, computing and other complex systems.
Human factors provides training in the foundation for the application of psychological and physiological principles to the engineering and design of products, processes and systems.
Cognitive science provides the foundation necessary for integrating human capabilities and limitations into complex sociotechnical systems (i.e., the practice of cognitive engineering), and the application of cognitive science relies heavily on human systems engineering techniques.
