SITS is a student records management system (also known as SI) which consists of a desktop SI Client for administration staff and online portal for academics and students.

It is used to store, administer and manage all elements of student information from initial application through to graduation. SITS is provided by Tribal (http://www.tribalgroup.com/higher-education/student-management-systems-and-software/sitsvision/) and is used by many higher education authorities worldwide.

The system comprises a number of different areas, including:

  • admissions
  • student records and enrolment
  • management of study programmes
  • management of modules, credits, examinations and assessments
  • research student records
  • student placement
  • student finance and funding

ITD provides a suite of reports that is integrated with SITS and is delivered through Oracle Discoverer.

As well as use for management of the University's own processes and providing information to various UL core systems, the data held in SITS is also used for statutory returns to the HEA.
