| Summary: | The purpose of U-Info system is to build a web-based system in order to help secondary school leavers to choose the best programme or university that matched with their personality. Some oversea universities have applied the concept of personality to help their students to choose the best programme to enroll in. Unfortunately, universities in Malaysia have not used this concept. There are websites available which provided only information regarding the programme available in Malaysia but the website do not provided the methods to choose the best university or programme that match with their personality. Thus, it caused many secondary school leavers having difficulties to choose which programme or university to enroll in. This project provided the guideline for the students to choose the most suitable programme offered by universities in Malaysia that match with their personality. The secondary school leavers are required to do the Holland Code personality test in order to identify their personality type. Based on their Holland Code, the student will be given a list of universities and programmes that matched with their Holland Code. The students can narrowed down the choices of universities and programmes from the list based on three factors that affected them the most while making decision in choosing a university or a programme. As the final step, the student will make their own decision based on the final list of programmes and universities given. This project only focused on secondary school leavers who included Sijil Pendidikan Menengah (SPM) students, Sijil Tinggi Pendidikan Malaysia (STPM) students and matriculation students. Since there are so many personality tests, this project only used Holland Code personality test. The waterfall model will be used as the methodology for this project. |
