This paper reports the experience of introducing and teaching Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) at the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science, from Babes-Bolyai University. We describe the theoretical content presented during lectures, the practical work the students have to perform, the involvement and the attitude of the students toward our approach in introducing them in the domain of Human-Computer Interaction. We also present the difficulties and challenges of introducing HCI between the mainstream computing related subjects our students are used to study
