About this course
CSCI E-71/S-71 Agile Software Development is a course taught at Harvard University Extension School and Summer School.
This course is an immersive experience in Agile software development. We study both the technical and cultural/social aspects of Agile, including:
pair and mob programming,
high-performance teams with the Core Protocols,
test-driven development,
behavior-driven development,
continuous delivery,
clean code,
refactoring,
extreme programming,
Scrum,
Kanban, and
Agile project management.
Students must have a laptop computer suitable for software development and bring it to on-campus class sessions.
By the end of this course, you will understand Agile software development so thoroughly that you’ll be able to be an effective leader or member of a great software product development team.

The summer semester is an on-campus face-to-face experience. We meet Monday-Thursday at 3:15-6:15 pm ET for three weeks beginning in late June.
