Engineering for Mechanical-Electrical-Agricultural-Construction-Chemical & Warnings Projects

At the University of Michigan, Professor Miller developed safety efforts in the occupational, consumer and vehicle safety areas. He and Professor Lehto wrote the first books on designing warnings and labeling.  Dr. Lehto’s recent reference book is an “Introduction of Human Factors and Ergonomics for Engineers”. Our company western state engineering projects include agricultural, hydroelectric, timber, and solar energy production. May we provide engineering services for you?
