Thesis Elements
UT Southern uses Elements as its Student Information System (SIS). This system is comprised of the administrative portal, faculty portal, student portal, and Power BI.
| Elements | Faculty Portal | Student Portal | Power BI |
|---|---|---|---|
| This is the administrative portal that supports the entire student lifecycle, including the student admission process, student course registration and management process, student financial aid process, the student billing process, etc.… | This portal empowers faculty by allowing them to perform these functions: evaluate advisees’ degree audit programs, register advisees, manage class rosters, access student schedules, view student and faculty directories, email students, and perform course management. | This portal allows students to view their own university’s information from anywhere they have access to the internet. Items accessed include course offerings, financial aid, billing ledger, degree information, grades, class registration, unofficial transcript, class schedule, etc. | Microsoft’s Power BI allows the expansion of Elements reports, allowing end users to request custom reports that are not part of out-of-the-box reports from the software vendor. |
