Next Generation Administrative Systems: Philosophy, Principles, and Technology

Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Next Generation Administrative Systems: Philosophy, Principles, and Technology (ID: ERB0719)
Author(s):Richard Spencer (The University of British Columbia) and Ted Dodds (The University of British Columbia)
Origin:Documents Contributed by ECAR, Research Bulletins (09/11/2007)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:

It is time to think differently about administrative systems in colleges and universities. Using the Kuali Student Service System as an illustration, this ECAR research bulletin discusses a vision, and a set of functional and technical principles, for the next generation of administrative systems. Although the vision and principles are being developed for a new student system, they can serve as a framework for the development of an administrative system in any area of higher education. They are also a guide to what to look for in planning to select and implement a next generation vendor-supplied administrative system.
