What Software Do Universities Use?

As the education industry shifts towards digitalization, more and more universities are adopting technology to automate and streamline various academic and administrative processes. Furthermore, as the amount of information that universities are expected to regularly collect, track and monitor increases, university education management software systems are becoming more and more necessary. Studies show that the global e-learning industry is expected to reach a market value of approximately $325 billion by the year 2025.

Features A University Education Management Software Should Have

1) Digital student attendance tracking

University education management software, can be used to track and organize student attendance for various classes automatically. This eliminates the need for physical attendance records, which makes documentation easier than ever before. Digital attendance tracking features can also help save time during classes. Which means more time can be dedicated to student academic development.

2) Automatic applicant merit lists

One of the most important aspects of efficiently and productively operating a university is ensuring that applicants meet pre-decided academic requirements. However, analyzing each application manually can prove time-consuming, tedious, and may lead to administrative errors. Therefore, university education management software can be used to automatically recognize whether or not a university applicant meets regulatory and eligibility academic requirements for university admission. A merit list of eligible students can then be created using predetermined input criteria.

3) Student timetable generation

Coordinating with students and teachers to create unique timetables for each student can be extremely complicated and repetitive. However, university education management software can utilize available data to create multiple timetable iterations for student classes. This ensures no clashing scheduling conflicts for students and teachers, ultimately making the learning experience much easier and more efficient.

Your university’s education management software should also allow students and teachers to modify existing timetables to fit their changing schedules.

4) General library management

Universities need to keep track of incoming and outgoing books in their library. Therefore, university education management software can help keep track of lending schedules, available books, and missing material. This will ensure minimal loss of books and ensure that students have adequate learning material available to them at all times.
