Hi

Anyone know of any human factors courses offered by universities with a focus on aviation? Also interested in job prospects in this area?

Just in Ausi in general or a specific city?
It seems to me that most Airlines use current line pilots to deliver HF training. I'm not sure what ATC and Engineering do. I imagine the big outfits like QF and Virgin have one or two academics on board supervising the curriculum but they would be degree holders in the subject. Are you contemplating a degree?

Sprog has just been accepted for a human factors uni course. Will check details and get back to you.

Swinburne Sprog tells me. Some links to get you started, a number of different courses available, these may be just the tip, so do a search.
