Counseling Department Scheduling and Accreditation Tool

Description / Abstract

Submitted to the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science

For department chairs and their support staff, scheduling courses can be some of the most tedious and time-consuming work they are involved in. Currently, courses are hand scheduled and checked to ensure they do not create conflicts for students in any semester of the program. A need exists for an automated scheduling application that can check for schedule conflicts and craft a complete schedule accordingly. Calculating information for the Council for Accreditation of Counseling & Related Educational Programs or CACREP Accreditation is a similar situation for NNU’s Counseling Department, as many data points must be considered in the calculation, which leads to a lengthy process that ultimately creates little value. The purpose of this project was to create a web-based application that could both create a completed schedule and calculate the CACREP ratio using the same spreadsheets and documents that the department uses in their current approach. It was also important that the project was easy to use and understand so simplicity of design was a key component. The project consists of a website designed using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP which communicates with a python application to parse data from the uploaded files and formulate output. It is hosted at nnu-counseling-calculator.tk.
