knowledge aboutstudent choices regarding graduate school. We considered these things when making ourdecisions about which faculty to approach, which course to try, and what the research curriculummight look like for integration of undergraduate research experiences as part of a pilot program.Applied Ergonomics and Work Design (IE271) is a second-year, required, introductory humanfactors course that covers the basic concepts of ergonomics and work design impact. It is threecredits, taught in two sections during the spring semester, by two industrial engineering facultymembers. Both faculty members are highly involved in research, and both emphasize the samefundamental concepts and content in their sections. Historically, both faculty members

graduate and undergraduate levels. At Whirlpool, in addition to managing the usability group and conducting user research, she participated in a variety of global innovation efforts and worked with colleagues in a variety of fields in the US, Europe, Latin America, and Asia to promote customer-centered design. Her primary research and teaching interests are in ergonomics and human-machine systems design. She has conducted independent research investigating the link between usability and desirability in product design, worked with ARINC Engineering Services, LLC to provide human-systems integration support on a variety of projects for the US Navy, and has more recently been directing student teams on a number of projects

Cabrera at the Pennsylvania State University focused onthe factors that most directly influence classroom vitality.20 Further research was performed atPenn State University in order to study classroom environment and teacher practices on studentsatisfaction in a first-year engineering design course. Factors that were studied included thefollowing: instructor interaction and feedback, collaborative learning, instructor climate, andpeer climate within the classroom
