Objectives and competences

• Student defines the role of engineering and management in providing a safe workplace • Student understands global human - manufacturing system relation. • Student can design new works without monotony. • Student is trained to enhance enthusiasm, motivation and change in leadership. • Student recognizes ergonomic psychology with respect to human work. • Student recognizes and masters measurement protocols for determining the physical characteristics of people and their susceptibility to activity in work environments.

Content (Syllabus outline)

• Engineering systems • Man in enterprise engineering • Ergonomics (theory of ergonomics, physical ergonomics, cognitive ergonomics, organizational ergonomics, ergonomics and safety, anthropometry) • Human anatomy and physiology (human body posture and movement, physical activity,) • Human-machine system • Ergonomics of disabled people and the elderly • Neuromuscular system • Loads handling (heavy work, improving work efficiency) • Engineering workstation design • Mental activity (boredom and fatigue, occupational stress, job design for monotonous tasks avoidance) • Working hours, eating habits and pauses • Night work and shift work • Vision, light • Hearing, noise and vibration • Microclimate (temperature, heat, humidity, relative humidity, air velocity, effective temperature) • Ergonomic Assessments: OWAS, RULA... • People with disabilities in the work process • Ergonomics in Industry 4.0
