β¦ Synopsis
lnformatics in West Germany is now accepted as one of the most important fields of engineering, as well as of fundamental research. The discipline, as well as the curriculum, developed evolutionarily from mathematics and electrical engineering, but has assimilated ideas from many other fields and has an interdisciplinary tendency, covering a wide spectrum from mathematical theory and philosophical background to hardware construction and concrete applications. The historical development of informatics curricula at West German universities is briefly sketched by describing the two recommendations given in 1969 and 1985 by scientific societies. In addition, some personal remarks on courses given for beginners and for students in the second phase are made. Also, some comments on job opportunities for informaticians in West Germany are given.
