Student
Information System (SIS)

Overview:
The mission of the Student Information System SIS (Web-e SIMS) Project
is to create an integrated information technology environment for students,
parents, HOD, faculty, Staff and administration. Our goal is to focus
on customers, services and integration for end users.
Student Information System (Web-e SIMS) Web-based self-service
environment for students, parents, prospective students, and employees;
an administrative transaction processing environment for university staff
to conduct day-to -day business; an information environment for all levels
of faculty and staff to do reporting, data extr action, and information
analysis.
Student Information System (SIS), Meet
accountability demands with our comprehensive student information systems.
Our easy-to-use, integrated College administration applications are proven
to reduce time spent on administrative tasks so you can concentrate on
raising student achievement. Student Information System have to accept,
process and generate reports accurately and any point of time any user
can get the student information. SIS System is an Integrated Software
Package and it is a data warehouse of student and course information.
Student Information System applications
are proven to reduce time spent on administrative tasks so you can concentrate
on raising student achievement. SIS facilitates networking of colleges/schools
to University/Board, colleges/schools to Society, colleges/schools to
each other, provided they are equipped with this systems.
The Student Information System is designed at integrating
the four elements of an educational system - Management,
Teachers, Students and Parents. It starts from
a simple student portfolio to a complex open communication channel which
facilitates synchronisation between the four elements with information
and helps institutions be efficient and effective.
Objectives:
The following objectives have been identified in student information system
(SIS software):
1. Integration of systems at the data, function and institution
level,
The objective of Student Information System is to provide
quality data in a timely fashion through systems that are completely integrated.
This will provide opportunities for operational efficiency and a base
for decision support activities at various levels.
2. Collection of information at the source,
The objective of this System is to provide facilities
for authorized users to enter information into the system directly, instead
of passing the information (usually on paper) to another individual at
another location to enter into the system.
3. Balance local and institutional information requirements,
The objective of SIS is to address the various administrative
and academic objectives of the faculties, as well as, provide the necessary
support for the institutional level activities conducted by the Registrar's
Office, Graduate Studies Office and Institutional Analysis and Planning.
4. Less paper driven SIS systems,
By collecting data at the source and providing wider
electronic access (particularly to students and faculty), the intention
of SIS system is to reduce the paper driven aspects of the existing systems.
5. Streamline approval procedures,
Often approval mechanisms become very routine in nature
and may not meet the original approval objective. The intention is to
question the existing approval procedures, and where possible develop
less cumbersome procedures, perhaps employing exception processing and
electronic approval.
6. Better decision support systems,
The objective of this system is to provide a well-integrated
suite of data and online modeling tools to support various decision-making
processes around admissions, course and exam scheduling, degree audit,
space planning, grant estimation, etc.
7. Integration of systems with office automation tools,
The intention of Student Information System (SIS) is
not only to have data easily portable to word processors, spreadsheets,
etc., but to use these tools as an integral part of applications. For
example, admissions letters could be easily prepared in a word processor
and triggered from the admission decision process where the applicants
name, address, program etc. are merged into the letter.
In addition, academic activities of student like student attendance, marks
scored in tests and class timetable are also captured in the student Information
System. The SIS is integrated so that student, parents and faculties can
share this vital information of student's academic activities. You can

Student Information System (SIS) Vision:
- Provide better services to students, faculty, staff, prospective
students, parents, etc.
- Provide meaningful, consistent, and timely data and information to
end users.
- Promote vision of senior management to address opportunities for
change.
- Update technology infrastructure for more effective and flexible delivery
of new systems.
- Promote efficiencies by converting paper processes to electronic form.
Training & Support
An ongoing component of the SIS project will be customer support and training,
including "JUST IN TIME' hands-on classes, as the system is made
available.
