Abstract

The fast paced evolution of computing disciplines forces educators to a constant reviewing and actualisation of both content and syllabus of professional studies. However, the studies within the area of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) had been traditionally left aside, being the interface design a primordial necessity in the job market. This proposal offers a vision, along with advantages, which would come with the incorporation of HCI studies to the syllabus of careers like the Bachelor in Informatics and Computing Engineering.
