The computing field has been changing since its inception. Several computing related curricula have been introduced by reacting to new developments in the field and industry requirements. Frequent changes to curricula guidelines require considerable administrative effort. Some of the curricular options are hard to sustain. The authors, after examining the developments over recent decades, present a generalized curriculum in the applied aspects of computing or informatics. This generalized applied computing program of study is flexible to accommodate new developments when they occur without requiring significant curricular redesigns.

Keywords: applied computing, informatics, curriculum
