BETWEEN ACADEMIC AND PROFESSIONAL LIFE: A SIMULATION OF A REAL-LIFE AGILE PROCESS FROM AN INTERDISCIPLINARY PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

This work aims to highlight the importance of practical experience in the professional development of undergraduate students. The simulation of real-life scenarios allows students to cultivate both technical competencies and soft skills, better preparing them for the demands of the job market. This article presents a practical simulation involving the application of an agile methodology in software development. The example aims to support a teaching approach in which practice plays a central role in students' personal and professional growth. Furthermore, it illustrates how an interdisciplinary experience can contribute both technically and pedagogically to higher education.
