Initial Assessment of Agile Development in the Undergraduate Curricula.

Agile is the most popular approach for software development nowadays, present in many companies and also in academia. Many universities have included agile in their curricula but there are no formal studies focused in the Argentinean Universities. In this study we aim to make an initial assessment of the state of Agile Education in the context of the Information Technology and Computer Science programs in Argentina. With this goal we conducted a survey in a national conference of Systems Engineering. Our results confirm that Agile is present in the curricula but in most cases it is only covered from a theoretical point of view. We also identified some situations that suggest a lack of depth in the way some practices are taught.
