Project Proposal: Database Design

Project Overview:
The ‘Student Management System' is designed to keep track of the information of the Administration, Students, Course, Exams, Fees .

Project Description:
The student management system allows authorized members to access the record of academically registered students. It can be used in various educational institutes across the globe and simplifies working of institutes.

Purpose Of The Project:
The system maintains records of students, the courses and modules on which they are registered and the outcome of their studies. The application is distributed application because the data is stored centrally by the university but accessed by academic staff and administrators across the university. Students also access the system to view their results. The real system would be service oriented and would expose some of its functionality as a set of services which could be consumed by other applications.

Problems In The Existing System:
The future of the existing system has to be seen as one of continuous change, where the information that is stored is of increasing complexity and quantity. The existing system is required to provide a useable and well managed interface for student, academic and administrator users to view and manipulate the data for which it is responsible. For each it must allow the rapid formulation and resolution of queries related to the student information. There is also a requirement for the system to interact with other information sources as required, both as an information source and as a consumer of related information during the resolution of queries.

Solutions of This Problems:
The development of this new system contains the following activities, which try to automate the entire process keeping in the view of database integration approach.

User Friendliness is provided in the application with various controls provided by system Rich User Interface.
The system makes the overall project management much easier and flexible.

It can be accessed over the Intranet.
The student information can be stored in centralized database which can be maintained by the system.
This can give the good security for user information because data is not in client machine.
Authentication is provided for this application only registered students can access.
There is no risk of data management at any level while the project development is under process.

You need to prepare a UML for the physical database design, and detailed project report on the student management system.
