Abstract:
The first step that the students have to get in contact with universities or
academic institutes is the admission process. Computer systems are widely used in
this process. Chandrakasem Rajabhat University is one of higher education institutes
that have established external campuses in various locations. All campuses have to
provide services to students at the same time at their own admission centers.
Therefore, additional staffs are required to provide adequate services. Some of these
campuses are also located distantly from Bangkok, which requires hours to travel. The
introduction of the student admission system via the Internet helps solving the traveling
and staff requirement problems. Moreover, the students can check the number of
applicants in their interested program so they can make decision accordingly. The
system can also schedule the examination rooms and the seats for both students and
staffs automatically. The students can then check the examination results from the
system via the Internet. The system is mainly composed of two parts. The first part is
web pages in PHP format developed using Macromedia Dreamweaver and Edit Plus.
The second part is the database system, which is designed and developed using
MySQL.
