Academic Advisor System

Project Description:

Our client, Peter Talajic is an academic advisor at Algonquin College managing the Computer Programming students. Under normal circumstances, students who progress through their program without interruption require little management regarding their expected course progressions. However, under a variety of circumstances, students may experience interruptions in their studies that may result in a progression in need of modification. Manually analyzing each students previously completed courses and their programs specific requirements can be a tedious process for the academic advisors, so we worked together with our client to begin the creation of a Web Application capable of viewing and managing student and program related data, as well as generating predicted student progressions. These generated progressions were created by comparing the students previously completed courses to their program specific requirements. They are then saved for later usage and/or modification and sent to the student for verification.

The idea of the application is to create a more seamless experience when managing these student progressions for the academic advisors for the Computer Programming, Computer Engineering Technology and Computer Systems Technician programs. Eventually, the application is to be modified to accommodate batch data analysis for all students within the mentioned programs to automate the creations of the predictions for the advisors at Algonquin College.
