    This forum is exclusively for Harvard University students. The sponsor for this forum is an exciting new web app, The Degree Tracker. Track and plan your Harvard Extension School ALM and ALB degrees or professional graduate certificate. Course ratings, instructor reviews, accomplishment badges, planning, tracking, and other tools to help guide students through their HES journey. TheDegreeTracker is proud to bring you this tool to use to track your degree at Harvard Extension School. If you are a student who has more courses than you can keep track of, and you would like to plan out your degree pathway carefully, then track and plan courses with the Degree Tracker to take control of your education. Including course reviews and course ratings, TheDegreeTracker has the potential to not only guide you through your degree, but to let you help other students who might be wondering about the HES courses that you've taken. The Degree Tracker is glad to provide the Harvard Extension School Student Forum (ESF) to help foster a nurturing environment. This forum for was born in 2015 to create better Harvard Extension School friendships, networking, and information to contribute to a better overall HES experience. Extension students formerly congregated at forums such as philfac and extensionstudent. This website has no affiliation with either the philfac or extensionstudent websites. It has been created and run by 100% completely different leadership. For the extension student who wants a bigger taste of what life with other Harvard Extension students is like, combining the Degree Tracker and the extension student forum can foster that sense of community that others have on campus. Another advantage of participating in an online community over the Harvard campus is that extension students can develop permanent relationships with other extension students that being on a physical campus might not necessarily allow, since online students are great at staying in touch online.

    What would you like to see in a forum?

    We'd be glad to hear your feedback. It's no piece of cake to graduate with your Bachelor of Liberal Arts or Master of Liberal Arts in a timely fashion, but your Bachelor's or Master's degree plan will only benefit from making use of the Degree Tracker and this exclusive forum for Harvard's marvelous students.

    Hi All,

    I am Hassan Ali Yaqub and I got admitted to the Harvard Undegraduate Degree Program at the Harvard Extension School in the fall of 2017.

    I need some help connecting to Harvard University scholars in the IT department. I have started a new startup in the healthcare industry and I am need of a IT specialist.

    If anyone is interested please contact me via email (hassanaliyaqub@g.harvard.edu) or if you could pease point me to a forum where I can connect to Harvard IT scholars, or if you could introduce me to someone from the IT department (a professor, coordinator or a fellow scholar) it would be a help of unimaginable depth.

      Can you be a little more specific? Are you looking to build a web application or do you know what specific skills you're looking for?

      Do you have a budget, or would this be educational work within your program?
    • HAYHAY Posts: 3
      Could we speak over Skype or Zoom, to discuss this in more detail?

      P.S
      This is a business opportunity.

      Sure. I have a couple options I can offer. If it's a big project with a big budget, my day job is at Kirschbaum (web) Development at https://kirschbaumdevelopment.com/ where you'd have a whole team at your disposal. If it's a smaller project with a smaller budget, my night job is at Mid-South Web Development - https://www.midsouthwebdevelopment.com where I have built this site and The Degree Tracker as 2 examples.
