About the programme

Students in our Psychology – Human Factors/Applied Cognition specialization at George Mason University can elect to focus on either professional training or preparation for a doctoral program.

Both tracks stress the analytic and empirical methodologies that are used in all phases of interactive systems design (where this is broadly defined to include any human-machine system).

The power and interpretation of these techniques reside in their close ties to cognitive theory.
