Human Factors Jobs....

[dmacfour]

I'm about to finish my first year in a Masters program for Human Factors and Ergonomics (experimental Psychology). At this point, I have 2 classes left to take. One is offered next fall, and one is offered next spring. I can either do a thesis during that period in time, or go get a job and take those two courses through online recordings of the lectures. This route would save me $5,000 in tuition as well as whatever full time job I can get (instead of an $8,000 assistantship).

 

Does anyone here have any insight into the human factors industry, and how hard it would be to find a job while completing a degree?

Human factors in a big field - you haven't mentioned what you're working in, and I'm afraid I have no experience with the types of jobs available in Idaho.
