Design of a web application for the registration and control of the research projects at CORPOSUCRE

Abstract

This project aims to support the University Corporation Antonio José de Sucre-Corposucre, because it will develop an application to keep a record and control of the different documents generated from the projects, emerged of the academic activities carried out in the subjects with an investigative approach, within the Faculty of Engineering of the Institution. This project began with a stage of analysis of the current situation of the faculty of engineering science of Corposucre, in the way of carried out the storage of research projects, which is done in magnetic devices without any backup and control, which can generate deterioration or loss of information. It is important to highlight that with this work the programming methodology Extreme Programming or XP was used with the objective of giving a solution in the less possible time, maintaining a permanent collaboration among all the team members. The result of this work will be a web-based software, which will allow to digitally storing the information of all those research projects that have been developed by the students throughout their professional careers, such as Classroom projects, degree thesis, among others. This in order not only to help its preservation and prevent its deterioration, but also to constitute a source of valuable information for other students and/or teachers who see on this platform a means to draw on, when they need to support their researchs or some work where they are participating. This coupled with this tool will give more visibility to the investigative work of our academic community.
