DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF SCHOOLS SOCIAL NETWORK

CHAPTER ONE

1.1 INTRODUCTION

Social life in most of our University is diminishing because of some factor. These limitations of social life have affected some of the students not to know how to relate in the outside world. In UNN University socialism is a problem. In building a social network website for the University will make the University to solve the problem of the anti socialism. A social network is a social structure made up of individuals (or organizations) called “nodes,” which are tied (connected) by one or more specific types of interdependency, such as friendship, kinship, common interest, financial exchange, dislike,  or relationships of beliefs, knowledge or prestige.

1.2      BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

UNN University is made up of four (4) faculties namely:

1.     Engineering with the following departments: Computer, Mechanical, Chemical and Electrical and Electronic Engineering.

2.     Environmental with the following departments: Architecture, Urban & Regional Planning and Estate Management.

3.     Management and Social Sciences with the following departments: Accountancy, Economics, Business Administration, Public Administration, Political Science, Industrial Relation and Personnel Management, Mass Communication, Marketing, Banking and Finance.

4.     Natural Sciences with the following departments: Biochemistry, Computer Science & Information Technology, Industrial Chemistry, Mathematics & Statistics and Microbiology & Biotechnology.

In Universities like UNN, the need for automated method of keeping data has been there. Software, so many of them has been developed and even sold worldwide to solve this problem. I have analyzed these software and discovered that very many of them are inefficient. Students as well has researched and developed their own software but they could not give or develop error free software that will assist in result generation, automated course registration to keep or build a database of results in the University that will facilitate students’ transcripts.
