Abstract
The Computer Science Technical Bachelor degree in France aims at training professionals who participate in the design, production and implementation of computing solutions corresponding to users’ needs. Its program contains realistic situations where knowledge from several disciplines must be put in practice within the context of transversal student projects. This paper focuses on knowledge related to Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and its interrelationship with other courses. It presents how the Grenoble and Valenciennes Technical Institutes manage the multidisciplinarity and discusses some lessons learnt from these experiences.
