With its interdisciplinary expertise in the fields of work and organizational psychology, ergonomics, human-machine interaction, project management and quality management, the IfA at the Holländischer Platz and Heinrich-Plett-Straße sites forms an interdisciplinary center at the University of Kassel. In research, the IfA takes up the above-mentioned topics from different perspectives and represents them - also beyond the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering - as cross-sectional subjects in teaching, e.g. in the degree courses of Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Product Design, Psychology, Industrial Engineering and Management and Economics.
Further information can be found on the respective pages of the four departments into which the Institute is divided, or you can contact the department heads directly.
