Automated safety systems, a first step toward autonomous vehicles, are already available in many commercial vehicles. These are systems such as adaptive cruise control, which has the capability to slow down due to traffic, and automatic lane keeping, which maintains position within a lane without driver intervention. In order to ensure that these systems are properly used by drivers it is essential that they understand and appropriately trust the technology.

The goal of this study is to learn about how the MS Human Computer Interaction program (HCI) at Georgia Tech can be tailored to suit students' specific needs and goals. Students entering the program would benefit from a greater understanding of how to move through the program to gain the skills needed for their desired roles post graduation. In order to form a complete picture of what student needs are, the research team will collect data about the current MS HCI program structure, current industry expectations of HCI grads, and current student expectations.
