Student Information System

Project Description

Client Overview

Our client, a prestigious university, required a robust Management Information System (MIS) to manage their Student Information Database efficiently. The system was designed to handle student enrollment, academic tracking, accommodation details, and financial records while integrating data from multiple sources into a unified platform.

Managing student data manually through multiple spreadsheets and disconnected systems resulted in inefficiencies and data inconsistencies. The main challenges included:

Scattered Student Records: Data came from various sources and needed to be merged into a centralized system.
Complex Enrollment Processes: Tracking student enrollment, courses, and accommodations manually was time-consuming.
Limited Data Insights: The university needed detailed statistical reports on student progression, attrition, and graduation rates.
Difficulty in Managing Excluded & Graduated Students: A dedicated system was needed to track students who left or completed their studies.
