Description

Are humans hard-wired to take risks? Does the structure and function of the human brain contribute to accidents? Why do so many efforts to reduce accidents, paradoxically, result in more accidents? Students explore these and related questions through the lenses of organizational theory, psychology, sociology, neuroscience, and education. Numerous case studies provide context and practical experience in accident analysis.
