Dr. Prasetyo earned his B.Eng in Industrial Engineering from Universitas Indonesia in 2013, achieving a GPA higher than 3.50/4.00. He also spent a year as an exchange student at Waseda University in Japan during his junior year. He completed his MBA in 2015 and his Ph.D. in 2019, both from the Department of Industrial Management at the National Taiwan University of Science and Technology (NTUST), specializing in human factors and ergonomics. He graduated with a perfect GPA of 4.00/4.00 and was honored with the NTUST Outstanding Youth award.
His research interests are diverse, HCI with a focus on eye movement, human behavior in disaster risk reduction, consumer behavior, color optimization for military camouflage, strategic product design, usability analysis, and accident analysis and prevention. Dr. Prasetyo has published over 300 Scopus-indexed papers (Scopus H-index of 30). His work appears in numerous SCI/SSCI-indexed journals (More than 125 SCIE/SSCI), including the International Journal of Infectious Diseases, International Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction, Journal of Cleaner Production, Cities, Ergonomics, Utilities Policy, Journal of Air Transport Management, Research in Transportation Business & Management, Nuclear Engineering and Technology, Annals of Nuclear Energy, International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics, Ocean & Coastal Management, International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics, Acta Psychologica, and many more.
Dr. Prasetyo has actively participated in international conferences as a co-chair, session chair, and committee member, receiving multiple best presentation awards. Beyond his academic achievements, he enjoys playing the flute, judo, swimming, SCUBA diving, freediving, Muay Thai, and hiking. He holds black belts in judo and taekwondo, is an internationally certified lifeguard, a certified advanced SCUBA diver, and an internationally certified freediver. He is fluent in Indonesian, English (IELTS 8.5), Chinese (TOCFL C1), Japanese (JLPT N1), and is currently learning Filipino and Thai.
The lab is focusing on green ergonomics and human behavior.
Global climate change, sustainability, and the concept of Environment Sustainability Governance (ESG) are some of the most important issues being raised by many academic institutions, especially managing natural disasters. To develop resiliency in several natural disaster-prone countries such as Taiwan, Philippines, Thailand, and Indonesia, managing natural disaster by applying macroergonomics concept in disaster management cycle can be applied. The purpose of this project is to apply identify the significant factors affecting the disaster management phases for natural hazards through a macroergonomics-based approach. Several theories in human behavior will be applied such as Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) and Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). In addition, several methods will also be applied to analyze the intention to prepare for natural disasters such as Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), Random Forest Classifier (RFC), and Deep Learning Neural Network (DLNN). This project is the first project done that cohesively tackled the segments of the disaster management cycle through a series of natural calamities studies, which can serve as a solid theoretical underpinning in preventing, mitigating, preparing, responding, and recovering from the catastrophic impacts of these hazards. Furthermore, the expected findings can be broadened and adapted to other natural disaster-prone countries to develop optimum risk responses.
