dc.description.abstract | MUC lacks proper information network within and between
its campuses. If a proper information network is e~tablished
between the campuses, then many man-hours would be saved and
utilised effectively in other sections of the University to
bring about efficiency in the provision of services.
The dissertation aims at showing how IT/IS can bring
about efficiency and effectiveness in MUC. Currently, the
services provided are slow, inaccurate, inconsistent,lacking
in integrity and laborious. A change·from a purely manual
system to that. supported by IT/IS would bring about
improvement and increase productivity.
Information has been gathered through extensive
literature review. I also conducted .in'terv i ews at various
departments at the University of Salford to gather more
information. My experience as an employee of MUC has also
proved very useful for this work.
This dissertation has tried to explore the range of
servaoes that an information network can provide to an
institution like MUC that has academic, administrative and
business objectives to achieve. It is hoped that it will be
both an insight and an inspiration to the administration of
MUC to consider having a moderrt information system. | en_US |
