In view of the changes introduced by the 3+3+4 education reform, and the global development trends in higher education, the University is anticipating a significant upsurge of student population, an increase in academic diversity, substantial changes in subjects and curricula, and the importance of building a life-long relationship with its students.
The University has therefore decided to transform its current student information system that will effectively support its educational mission over the next decade or more, prepare for the academic and administrative challenges ahead, and cope with the new demand of quality services.
