Overview
This project functions for showing it as a sample to showcase in college projects.
Features in the project include what course students to take, student’s department
location, dormitory location, their class location

Background
Student Management System can handle all the detail about a student. The details
college details, students’ personal details, academic details etc. The Student
Management System is an automated version of manual student management
system. This project is aimed at how the institute can improve the efficiency of the
services. Student Management System is one of the applications to improve the
information of any particular student. This application involves almost all the
features

5
of the information system the future implementation will be online help for the users
to obtain information.

Problem Statement
The problem occurred before having computerized system includes:

File lost
When computerized system is not implemented file is always lost because of
human environment, due to some human error there may be a loss of records.
File damaged when a computerized system is not there; file is always lost due to
some accident like of water by some member on file accidently. Besides some
natural disaster like floods or fires may also damage the files.
Difficult to search record
When there is no computerized system there is always a difficulty in searching
of records if the records are in number.
Space consuming
After the number of records becomes large the space for physical storage of
files and records also if no computerized system is implemented.
Cost consuming
As there is no computerized system to add each record paper will be needed
which will increase the cost the management of student.

Objectives
The main goal of this project is to simplify the process of
information management in a particular college.
To manage students’ information during admission and
examination.
Efficient utilization of human resource.

6
 To reduce unnecessary paper works in maintaining students’ information.

Ensure data integrity, privacy, and security in an open-access

environment.

Specific Objectives

• Save the time and make the work easy for desk user
• Computerized system is efficient and accurate then manual so
this system is very accurate and reduces manual works.
• To get actual number of student’s will register in college or
universities.
• Improving current systems and enabling all schools to operate as
part of an integrated flexible education system.

Scope
The student management system achieves the following:

 To enable the head and technical supporting group to access the system from
anywhere.
 To add the student data in database.
 To search the student data from the database.
 To modify the student data in database.

7
  To delete the student data from database.
Requirements
• Each student has unique id_number.
• Students can take many courses.
• One lecturer teaches many students.
• All students will have an exam.
• Every student must attend in the class.
• A dormitory should have maximum six students.

8
• The department has to supervise the class and manage the courses.
• All departments may prepare one or more exams.

Conclusion
We have learned from student management system project that it can
improve student’s creativity, problem solving skills, maintaining data
precision and reliability. It allows you to access data in various ways. The
power of relational systems and languages are wonderful. It allows you to
easily find specific information. They have the ability to store large amounts
of data with little structure.
