Can you briefly tell us what course you took in the fall?
It was a course in industrial software development, where the focus was directly on the development process in a team using the Scrum framework. Well, that is, we had an introductory lecture, they explained to us what it is and how it works, and then gave the opportunity to apply the knowledge gained in practice.
Have you seen anything like this in Belarus?
Exactly the same is not present. I talked with guys from other universities with whom we studied together on the course and they said that they did not study flexible methodologies at all. There is a similar course in my specialty, very cool.
Are you glad to have participated in this project?
Absolutely yes. It is not often that there is an opportunity to learn from specialists from other countries, while immediately applying the knowledge gained on real projects from real customers. This is an invaluable experience that allows me to significantly grow professionally, to which a pleasant addition for me personally was the opportunity to obtain a CSM certificate from the Scrum Alliance.
I worked on the project for 3 months in a nice team in an interesting and useful way. I developed professional skills, gained invaluable experience in teamwork, experience in interacting with the customer of the product.
