Ultimately participants will be expected to be able to identify and develop design-based solutions that are feasible\, effective and justifiable. Activities and topics will be structured to recognize the unique needs of adult learners (lecture\, demonstration\, hands-on learning\, etc.). From office spaces to manufacturing plants\, we will discuss how the physical environment impacts human performance and well-being\, and how engineers can shape these spaces for optimal results.\n \nThis course mixes interactive lecture and hands-on exercises to allow all participants to learn and apply techniques.\n  \n\nFee: $1950/$1650 for members (if you have 5 or more registrants contact us for pricing information)\nRoyalty fee for customized design checklists and resource guides for each individual are included in the cost\n 2.0 Continuing Education Credits (CEUs) available at registration through NC State University\n\n  \nREGISTER TO ATTEND

SUMMARY:Ergonomics for Engineers
DESCRIPTION:About Ergonomics Training for Engineers\nThis comprehensive course covers the key elements of the appropriate design of products and workspaces for the human user. Engineers armed with a deep understanding of ergonomics are better equipped to create products that not only function more efficiently but also enhance the user experience. At the conclusion of this course\, participants will have a more holistic grasp on all the considerations required to produce quality designs while also learning how to increase efficiency\, reduce injuries\, and improve overall performance. We will emphasize the principles of human-centered design\, placing the user at the core of the engineering process. A significant portion of the course will be dedicated to anthropometric design\, where we examine the dimensions and physical capabilities of the human body. From office spaces to manufacturing plants\, we will discuss how the physical environment impacts human performance and well-being\, and how engineers can shape these spaces for optimal results.\n  \nREGISTER TO ATTEND\n \nThis course mixes interactive lecture and hands-on exercises to allow all participants to learn and apply techniques.\n  \nObjectives\nAfter attending this course\, participants will be able to: \n\n\nUnderstand the principles of human-centered design and its applications in engineering.\nPossess the skills to apply anthropometric data in designing products that cater to a diverse user base.\nRecognize the significance of environmental factors in shaping ergonomic solutions.\nAnalyze and critique existing designs from an ergonomic perspective.\n\n\n  \nDetails\n\n\nWorkshop is offered in-person\, at your company site\, or virtually.\nTraining Fee: $1950/$1650 for members (if you have 5 or more registrants contact us for pricing information)\nRoyalty fee for customized design checklists and resource guides for each individual are included in the cost\n2.0 Continuing Education Credits (CEUs) available at registration through NC State University\nLunch is provided for Center hosted In-Person offerings
