No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1990–91 to 1994–95 (before that, 1974–75 to 1989–90 used the number for Introduction to Ergonomics); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

Ergonomics — the man-machine environment, human sensory processes, information processing, motor function. Introduction to biomedical engineering. Introduction to cognitive ergonomics.

As printed in the 1990–91 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
