Cognitive engineering

And I work in the College of Engineering, work in the Aviation Department and over in Integrated Systems Engineering.

So over there, I work in my specialty is Cognitive Engineering, Automation Design, Advanced Flight Deck Design.

So I do aviation research in both areas, but also disaster research in other areas.

I have a background as an airline pilot as well, and also as an accident investigator, where I still do some of that

Yeah, absolutely.

First of all, you're exactly right about the overconfidence.

I remember as part of my PhD, we take a lot of psychology classes because my PhD is in cognitive engineering.

And As human beings, we're terribly overconfident.
