Application Design for Thesis Submissions in Higher Education Based on Prototype of Android System Information Technology
Abstract
This study aims to analyze and develop an innovative prototype design based on Android system information technology to improve organizational performance in universities, especially in managing thesis submissions that have been done manually. This research uses a qualitative approach and literature study. The research location is at the Islamic University of Malang, Indonesia, which involves several informants: lecturers, the administration department, and students. This research was conducted by identifying and describing the manual system of workflow for the thesis submission process at the university and making design recommendations to change the manual system to Android information technology. The results showed that the thesis handling process at the Islamic University of Malang, Indonesia, was running too slowly and had been detrimental to the parties, especially for students, lecturers, and administration. The existence of universities in public services is considered ineffective, inefficient, and inappropriate. Therefore, for the best solution, it is necessary to use a new design to change the old manual thesis submission to be more sophisticated and modern in Android information technology. This will ensure the interests of all parties at the university and make it easier for all parties to complete their respective roles and tasks.
Keywords: service innovation, information technology, performance, higher education, undergraduate thesis.
