A Data Base System of the Expertise at Riyad University

The staff data base is felt to be of great importance to the university. Although the system is implemented in a small scale in the Collge of Engineering it is hoped to extend it to all the colleges within the university. The fast movement and instability of manpower in the university make this data base an essential tool for decision-making in the planning and evaluation of the educational process. This data base should be viewed as a part of an integrated data base system that covers all possible management and research requirements in the field of education in the Riyad University.
