This graduate diploma (Diplome d'etudes superieures specialisees) in ergonomics and innovation, offered jointly by the Department of Industrial Relations and the Department of Kinesiology, prepares students to diagnose work situations and guide workplace changes that improve worker health and safety and production-system efficiency. The 27-credit, interdisciplinary program includes seven mandatory courses and six elective credits chosen from four thematic areas: workplace health and safety, work and organization, professional practice, and research. Some courses are offered at a distance, and most classes are scheduled in the late afternoon or evening. Full-time completion takes an estimated one year, with a part-time option available. Admission is offered for the fall term, with an application deadline of April 15. The program suits graduates in industrial relations, kinesiology, psychology, management, or industrial or mechanical engineering who want to specialize in workplace ergonomics.
