Title

Integrating Principles Of Environmental Sustainability Into Human Factors Education: A Recommendation

Abstract

Environmental problems continue to increase and a variety of scholarly disciplines are working to address sustainability through the study of engineering design and human behavior. However, the human factors and ergonomics community of scholars has yet to become a force in research related to environmental issues and solving environmental problems. We argue that the next generation of scientists and engineers in human factors must be educated to understand how they can address current and future problems in environmental sustainability. In this paper we outline the beginnings of a set of topics that can inform the development of such an educational program. Copyright 2012 by Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, Inc.
