Target Group:

Challenges:
Lack of real awareness about the benefits of ICT is leading to lot of challenges. Those holding top positions are often of traditonal mindsets are unwilling to implement new technologies. Therefore the pace of implementation of new solutions
slows down. Another challenge that we faced is related to integration of ICT into private and public enterprises. This kind of integration is a new area and lot of experimentation is required before we can be sure that we are treading the right path. Managing the operational risks, and the cost escalations is also a problem.

As a part of the Management Programmes offered by MET, the division is working for the establishment of an e-enabled campus. The idea is to provide excellent education to students who enrol in the programme. The education gets conducted in a more environment friendly manner.
Objective
• Provide avenues for better education to students.
Achievements:
• Multiple Institute setup under a single umbrella organisation.
• Seamless connection of students with the academic and non academic staff.
• From admission process to curriculum, students have an efficient experience
Target Group:
Management staff and students
Challenges:
The major challenge lies in gathering the exact requirement of users from different domains on different modules. To resolve this issue the organisation had prepared a questionnaire and distributed it to collect information. Integration of online Admission Management System with the PeopleSoft Campus Management System was the next major challenge, because both systems were developed on different platforms. To resolve this issue we had to match the data format of both the systems and convert it into CSV format, so that the other system could fetch the data from centralised location on a timely basis.
