Abstract
Educating technological designers is difficult. An educational curriculum should
provide both sufficient discipline-related skills, and cross-disciplinary skills. In
order to argue about the balance between the two, we speculate on the relation
between disciplines and application domains, and we give some considerations
as to what disciplinary baggage gives the best preparation for prospect interdisciplinary
designers. Finally, we hint at a particular role for software designers
in the process of designing across discipline borders.
