Admission Criteria
- Academic good standing within an approved major within the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.

- Minimum overall and UB cumulative GPA of 2.500 required. Admission will be limited to 25 students per year, and therefore the GPAs of admitted students may be higher. When demand exceeds capacity, the overall academic history of applicants will be considered in admission decisions.
Current students wishing to add or change their minor to Human Factors and Ergonomics Engineering, submit the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences Major/Minor Change Application. See the complete School of Engineering and Applied Sciences Admissions Policies for details
