- Abstract
This paper presents how Ergonomics is present on curriculum content of Design undergraduate programs in Brazilian Universities. The sample consisted of 17 pioneer institutions founded during the first 25 years of design courses in Brazil. Curriculum available on-line or gathered over email exchanges were analyzed considering their syllabus content related to the attributions of the main areas of Ergonomics, previously presented in literature review. Descriptive statistics, visual charts and graphs were used in order to analyze the data and to obtain a characterization of the current situation of the programs. The results show that the courses are mainly focused on particular attributions of Physical and Cognitive Ergonomics and lack of structural, procedural and political attributions of macro ergonomics.
