From March 2023, departments, teaching staff and programme managers have been working in the SIS2. The aforementioned workplaces are closed in the old SIS application.
In spring, we introduced a new design that follows the university's digital environments brand guidelines. The same design, which includes changed fonts, buttons and colours, has been implemented in all SIS2 workplaces. An important change for the user is that the main menus have been moved from the left side to the top. In addition, quick references and help have been made more convenient.
From the new academic year, in accordance with the academic policies, the presentation of the student's individual study plan has been supplemented in such a way that a student who wishes to defend their thesis in the upcoming semester submits a thesis declaration in their study plan. This way, the student can indicate their desire to graduate earlier than before, and the school/department/programme manager has a better overview of students who have reached the graduation stage. Also, thanks to this information, the department or programme manager can help a student without a supervisor find one.
In the academic year that has started, we will continue to create the new SIS working environment of the deanery.
We are also continuing with changing the SIS servers and hope to move the SIS to new servers by the beginning of the spring semester and thereby improve the reliability of the system.
