  Master of Science (MS) Human Systems Integration

  "Human Systems Integration (HSI) acknowledges that the human is a critical component in any complex system. It is an interdisciplinary approach that makes explicit the underlying tradeoffs across the HSI domains (and, in particular, manpower, personnel, training, and human factors engineering) to optimize total system performance within the constraints of cost, schedule, and risk."https://my.nps.edu/web/dl/cert_hsi#programoverviewGraduate Thesis Title: A Human Factors Analysis… Show more "Human Systems Integration (HSI) acknowledges that the human is a critical component in any complex system.
