​ This is the largest human factors group in any university in Israel. Research facilities include the only full-size driving simulator laboratory in Israel, instrumentation for conducting physiological measurement and monitoring eye movements, and advanced computer systems for research on dynamic graphic displays. In addition to research in the lab, human factors research is also conducted in various field settings, including intensive care units in hospitals, industrial plants and fleet studies on driving safety. Research is funded by industry, non-profit organizations, the Israel National Science Foundation, and the Israeli government (namely the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Transportation and the Ministry of Defense).
Human Factors research strongly involves students. Many undergraduate students do their final projects on topics related to human factors and a relatively large number of MSc and PhD students conduct research in this field.
