IT Projects

Upgrading all college classrooms with modern equipment for remote teaching, in collaboration with Technology solutions and external vendors.

Collaborating with our director of Human Resources, this project aims at building a web-based front end with Django, Python, PHP and MySQL, that allows department managers to submit employee requisition, approval of new hires, facilitate a new employee onboarding, and maintain personnel records on premises.

Redevelop ETL website, streaming equipment reservations for college faculty and student teachers, and modernizing our departmental knowledge base (The ETL Wiki). Moving away from the paper process to a completely digitized system, provide traceability and accountability of vital university resources.
