I think James Madison or George Mason have a good program in Human
Factors. As I recall that kind of program was more popular down there
I suspect because of the military applications, but if you can't find
anything else I would imagine a lot of it would be applicable.
University of Maryland is a big one (Ben Shneiderman et al)
This list is a good starting point for people looking for grad programs.

Hello all,
I hope this is not too off topic, but I have been a web UI
designer/animator for last 9 years. It seems that some level of
advanced
degree might be a good idea and it would certainly help my current
employer's opinion of things. (I am largely self taught and a politics
major, so credentialing in this area would help.)
My questions:
1) Is there a MA or program in interaction design/interactive media
and/or
game design in the DC metro area? (I have a kid and can't move as my
wife
has a job here.)
2) Is there an online program you would recommend and why? I have been
looking at SCAD's online interactive media and game design and
while the
MFA is a better fit,I can't move to Georgia.
3) Are there organizations, groups, or companies in the DC area that
you
recommend to get more involved in interaction design?
Thanks so much,
Matthew
