Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the present teaching conditions of ergonomics in Japan, the research contents by the researchers concerned in the teaching, and so on. It was found that ergonomics in Japan had been remarkably popularized since 1965 and that it had been much popularized in its education since 1967, too. But some of the researchers, especially psychologists already started to research Ergonomics before 1959.
In its education, many faculties of engineering, especially departments of industrial management, were concerned in ergonomics. Many of the leaders were engineers, too.
