The Request for Proposals (RFP) for degree planning tools (i.e., Graduation Planner and Schedule Builder) is complete, and a contract has been signed with Stellic. This represents the end of a thorough evaluation of all possible options for degree planning tools. Stellic scored highly in usability and accessibility and promises to handle the complexity of the University system. The tool has both degree and semester planning functionality and includes features not available in our current systems. The first set of students should be using the platform within 9 months with a phased rollout to the entire system over 2 years.
The implementation of Stellic, which kicked off in mid-April, is one component of the DegreeCat Project. Also underway is the RFP process for a course management and curricular program management tool that meets or exceeds the current needs being met by ECAS and PCAS. The project structure has system-wide representation that spans many roles and perspectives.
