Research
HUMAN FACTORS
Primarily focused upon non-technical skills and workplace incivility, our human factors research spans from agriculture to aviation.
PEDAGOGICAL
Our pedagogical research currently focuses on developing a universal model of graduate attributes that could be used both as a research tool and as a common language between universities, employers, and other stakeholders.
APPLIED
The applied psychology strand focuses on workplace incivility, normalisation of deviance and visual search.
