The best source of this information might be the directory of graduate
programs in human factors which was published by the Human Factors Society.
I know that this directory (which was prepared in 1985) is presently being
updated.  I believe that the correct person to contact is Lois Smith,
Publications Manager, Human Factors Society, P.O. Box 1369, Santa Monica, CA
90406, or call (213) 394-9793.
