ACKNOWLEDGMENT
I take this opportunity to express my deep sense of gratitude and sincere thanks to
my guide Mr. Ravindra Babu for his valuable guidance, encouragement and support
throughout the duration of this project. I also extend my thanks to the faculty
members and friends who helped me directly or indirectly in the successful
completion of this project.
ABSTRACT
The Student Management System is a web-based application developed using
Django and MySQL, designed to manage and maintain student records efficiently.
This system includes modules for student information, attendance, marks, course
details, and reporting. It aims to replace manual record-keeping with a secure, user-
friendly and scalable solution.
1. INTRODUCTION
The Student Management System is a web-based application built using Django (a
high-level Python Web framework) and MySQL for database management. The
primary goal of this system is to automate and simplify student record-keeping
processes including personal details, academic performance, attendance records,
and course enrollment. The system provides an efficient and user-friendly interface
for administrative staff to manage student data in real-time.
2. OBJECTIVES
The main objectives of the Student Management System are:
Software Requirements:
- OS: Windows/Linux
- Backend: MySQL
- Frontend: HTML, CSS, Bootstrap
- Server-side Framework: Django
- Web Browser: Chrome/Firefox
5. SYSTEM DESIGN
The system design phase lays the foundation for the project by establishing how
each component will interact.
It includes the architecture, data flow, and interaction between models, views, and
templates. The system follows
the Model-View-Template (MVT) architecture provided by Django. This helps in
modularizing the development process
and maintaining separation of concerns. Below is a high-level description of each
component:
Model: Manages the data and database interactions using Django ORM.
View: Handles business logic and retrieves data from the model to present to the
user.
Template: Controls the layout and design presented to the user using HTML and
Bootstrap.
System workflows involve user authentication, CRUD operations for students and
courses, attendance updates,
marks entry, and dynamic report generation.
- Use Case Diagram: Shows the interaction between users and the system
functionalities.
- Class Diagram: Represents the data model and relationships between entities such
as Student, Course, Marks, and Attendance.
- Activity Diagram: Describes the workflow of student registration and data entry.
These diagrams help in visualizing the system architecture and interactions before
actual coding begins.
