Administration’s perspective..
The Administration department will
start implementing the
SmartZone setup for the university configurations. The steps
will be as:
• Building the university hierarchy.
• Distributing the credit hours for each program over different
requirements
• Building the university constants .
• Identification, description, and classification of the studying
courses in the system.
• Building the study plan for the each academic program.

E.g. Ranks, positions,
degrees, marks and
grades by numbers,
percentage, letters
and points.
Importance: The system puts
into consideration these
constants when entering any
variables that are related to. It
will make objection for any
conflict that may happen.

Teaching Loads distributions
example:
E.g.: Adding an instructor who is
a holder of PHD with Max
teaching 9 hours , When giving
him the teaching Loads like (12
hours).
We notice the Response of the
system according to the
standards for licensure and
accreditation committee
(3-8-9 Faculty loads).

Building the study plan for the

Considerations:
There should not be any
compulsory or elective
department courses in
the first year.
University requirements
often are in the first two
years followed by the
college requirements.
Then department
requirements start.
