Project Information: The Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences includes the F. Edward H?bert School of Medicine has a year-round, four-year curriculum similar to that found at other U.S. medical schools. Doctoral and masters degrees in the biomedical sciences and public health are awarded by interdisciplinary and department-based graduate programs within the School of Medicine. USU also includes the Graduate School of Nursing which offers a Master of Science in Nursing degree in Nurse Anesthesia, Family Nurse Practitioner, Preoperative Nursing, and a Ph.D. degree in Nursing Science. We are interested in acquiring commercial off the shelf (COTS) software modified as a comprehensive student information system that stores detailed information on students, faculty, and staff; it would provide class schedules, track, store, and record grades and attendance, produce report cards, and calculate GPAs. The software will allow the USUHS exchange data with Blackboard and Corporate Database, a University Intranet, enables electronic grades, and supports an electronic workflow system. The system will also need to support multiple USUHS programs such as HSPD-21, the Virtual Medical University and the growing interest in USUHS distance learning initiatives. The objective is to have software that will allow the University to simplify administrative functions with fast and easy record keeping, student scheduling, attendance tracking, and reporting.
