Product Scope
Student Information System (SIS) is a web-based application for students, faculty, academic staff and parents who want to get and retrieve student’s whole information instantly via internet. The major benefit of this web portal is to store the students information at one place (like SERVER) and it can be accessed via online interaction. The SIS web portal is to replace the old and traditional file(paper work) storing process. Instead of tedious paper work, students will be able to submit required information electronically, and the departments will be able to evaluate the submissions with a much quicker turnaround.
