Human Factors and Engineering

Human Factors and Engineering is the study of how people interact with systems, tools, and environments to improve safety, efficiency, and comfort. It involves understanding human abilities, limitations, and behaviors to design products and systems that are user-friendly. For example, it considers how the layout of a car dashboard can affect driving safety or how a website can be designed for intuitive navigation. The goal is to enhance performance and reduce errors, making experiences better for users in various contexts, from workplaces to everyday life.
