This course presents an opportunity to define a project of your own choice, to explore and understand human factors issues in design through research and application. Term work will progress toward a completed project, with final deliverables that will include a thorough report that describes your process of research and design explored throughout the semester. This will include verbal and visual material that clearly articulates the user groups and product categories you identify and research, focus and intent of your project, context of human-product use, observations and research, testing and results. This course is open to all juniors and seniors in Design, both ID and CD. All others will be waitlisted and admitted only with the permission of the instructor.
