Center for Human Factors in Advanced Aeronautics Technologies (CHAAT)

CHAAT performs on-going research to measure human performance in complex systems such as the Next Generation Airspace Transportation System (NextGen). We also participate in the training of the future workforce, in aeronautics and other NASA-related disciplines, through the training of students in human factors.

CHAAT is:

• A NASA Group 5 University Research Center (URC)
• A multidisciplinary venue for human factors research
• Focused on the evaluation and design of air traffic management concepts and technologies
• Training students in human factors methods and techniques
• Providing support for underrepresented students to pursue careers in scientific, technological, engineering, and mathematical (STEM) careers
