University of Dundee

Hard to believe that this is now week 9 of my penultimate semester/term at Dundee University, time has just flown in. While this is normally a good thing I am left realising that the available time to work on my honours project is deminishing rapidly. 

 

My honours project is focused around the management of software projects and teams across more than one methodology or management style. In-keeping with the theme of the project, I am working under an agile approach and will be utilising a number of aspects of Scrum (user stories, sprints, user-centred development, etc.) and because of this I am keen to enlist the support of the development community.

I am looking for open-minded people who will have a little bit of time going spare from January to April to play the part of the “customer” or “customers” in my project. My supervisors are keen to bring real people into the development and felt it would be a good to get some input from people involved in the software development process.

I am still in the planning stages of user involvement but I am aware of the need to start finding people willing to help out.

Ideally I am looking for managers a developers and designers in order to get a good spread of expertise and requirements although I am not expecting to get exactly what I am looking for.

More details of the project can be found on my Honours Project page.
