The University of Michigan Center for Ergonomics is dedicated to furthering knowledge about how humans perform and interact in all settings including work, transportation, defense, daily living, study and leisure.

For nearly 50 years, Center for Ergonomics research has led to a better understanding of work-related musculoskeletal disorders and principles of human-centered technologies and man-machine interaction. This work has provided a foundation for: models of human biomechanics; models and methods to analyze and support perceptual and cognitive work; and methods to analyze and design jobs for control of musculoskeletal disorders. This knowledge is used by a multitude of professionals to design safe and productive human environments.
