In a rapidly evolving digital age, the nuances of technology and its interface with human touchpoints have become crucial. One individual working in this expanding field is Kavya Ramamoorthy, a proud graduate of Iowa State University’s human-computer interaction (HCI) online master’s program. Now, as a Digital Accessibility Specialist, she is in a position to enhance the online experience for Citibank customers.

The HCI Graduate Program has four items to share for Fall 2023: 1) ChatGPT, the Bee Gees, and HCI; 2) New HCI policies regarding Ph.D. students; 3) Enrollment Keeps Rising (Keep telling your friends!); 4) CycloneSupport and TAO (for your well-being)

Iowa State researchers in psychology and engineering found women experience cybersickness with virtual reality headsets more often than men. Their ongoing work, supported by a new $600,000 grant from the National Science Foundation, explores why this difference exists and options to help individuals adapt.
