Design can be art. Design can be aesthetics. Design is so simple, that's why it is so complicated.

Stone, Nancy J., Smolensky, Mark W., Moroney, William F., Gardner-Bonneau, Daryle Jean and Stein, Earl S. (1995): Undergraduate Human Factors Education: Could it be Utilized and Marketed Better?. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 39th Annual Meeting 1995. pp. 404-408.

This panel session addresses the concern that undergraduate education in human factors has not been utilized or marketed effectively. Specifically, the panelists propose that an undergraduate course or program is a means by which to inform people about the human factors area, to prepare undergraduate students for employment with a bachelors degree, and to enhance the working student's skills needed in the workplace. Additionally, the use of undergraduate education as a proactive means to introduce and attract individuals to the field of human factors is presented.

Smolensky, Mark W., Caldwell, Barrett S., Morgan, Ben B., Stone, Nancy J. and Turnage, Janet J. (1995): Should Human Factors and Industrial/Organizational Psychology be Reintegrated for Graduate Training?. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 39th Annual Meeting 1995. pp. 775-778.

This panel addresses the extent to which students should be exposed to both human factors psychology and industrial/organizational psychology. Should a combined curriculum be developed called work psychology that would have a core set of courses including both industrial/organizational and human factors while still permitting students to specialize? Should courses should be taught in a holistic fashion? For example, when covering the topic of workplace design, should such topics as workstation design, ergonomics, and shift work be augmented with organizational topics as fatigue, boredom, morale, teamwork, job enrichment, and safety? Conversely, is there, perhaps, strong justification for continuing to maintain two distinct disciplines? The panel members straddle the continuum from advocating continued separation of the two disciplines to re-integrating the two disciplines.
