Cognitive Systems Engineering

Cognitive Systems Engineering is multi-disciplinary area of research that focuses on human-systems integration in complex socio-technical systems. Cognitive Systems Engineering researchers investigate ways to analyse, model and evaluate human-system interaction with a view to designing better interfaces for complex systems. 

The overall goal of this research is to develop better theoretical frameworks and methodologies that will help identify human-system interaction needs more effectively and move more quickly to practical solutions.  Research to date has been supported by the Australian Research Council and by industry sponsors including DSTO, Airservices Australia, Snowy Hydro and Powerlink.
