Abstrakt: This paper reports a code refactoring experience in an undergraduate level of an Academic Project Management web-based system. The system is called SIGD and it is based on project management concepts to support the administration of a postgraduate program, though it can be used at an undergraduate level. We have used the Evolutionary Acquisition Interdisciplinary Research Project Management (EA-IRPM) strategy together with scrum and the MVC pattern. Our main result was a completely refactored code for the new version of the system. Besides that the system's code has become easier to maintain and to develop as expected. Finally, the students report that they have increased their development skills in a professional level, which signals that a specific discipline of code refactoring could be used as a way to help students to mature professionally.
