With the widespread use of information and communication technologies, it also causes many risk factors. Intensive use of devices can lead to physical problems in the human body, especially in the joints and muscular system, and psychologically negative situations such as restlessness and uneasiness. Therefore, the concept of ergonomics is of great importance in terms of occupational health and safety. The aim of the study carried out in this context is to determine the ergonomic risks experienced by university students, specifically at vocational schools, depending on their use of information and communication technologies, and to make suggestions accordingly.
