Abstract

A survey has been made concerning the teaching of ergonomics in the Netherlands. At the tertiary school level of the national educational system and in special courses, sponsored by the Dutch Ergonomics Society, some teaching can be found. It appears that much room for expansion is available, especially in curricula of technological universities and higher vocational schools. It seems to be fruitful in new courses to shift the stress from physiological and psychological theory towards technical, designing and organisational applications and from diagnosis to prevention.
