Engineering psychology
Bachelor of Science

Engineering psychology (human factors engineering) deals with the human-centred design of technical systems, workplaces and processes. The focus here is on psychology, ergonomics and human factors: the aim is to improve efficiency, safety and user satisfaction. Human-machine interactions are analysed and optimised through the application of psychological and ergonomic principles. Engineering psychologists work in a wide range of sectors - from the automotive and aviation industries to medical technology and IT - to make products, working environments and services user-friendly, performance-enhancing and safe.

The Study and Examination Plan (SPP) provides a detailed roadmap for the course of study, including the sequence of modules and examinations to be completed. A module handbook (MHH) is a document that contains detailed information on the content, objectives, examinations and other relevant aspects of a particular study module. The Study Examination Regulations (SPO) define the formal framework conditions of a degree programme, such as the required modules, examination formats and dates as well as the standard period of study. These documents are crucial to ensure a structured and transparent course of study and that students acquire the required qualifications
