Session A: Changes in University Organisation and Structure |
Kestutis Pocius , Giedrius Deveikis , Darius Braukyla , Marijus Jurgutis : Admission to Lithuanian Universities: |
Our IS is absolutely based on Internet technologies usage and active participation of every university (describing its own study programs, admittance regulations, admission criteria, user categories and properties, administration of web-services and web- applications, etc.).
Figure 1: LUCA‘s Application centres
In the admission season of the year 2000 we had 7 Application reception centres located in 4 main Lithuanian cities. Those centres were identified with University admission offices or its branches. Figure 1 represents locations which all belong to the LITNET infrastructure. Dotted lines point at HE institutions that do not belong to LUCA. Staff in reception centres was waiting for applicants and was filling in online forms for the data to be transferred to a central database (in Kaunas). Another main DB (in Vilnius) was supported via replica. Other daily copies of data were produced and sent to LUCA members upon their demand. Replicated data was dedicated for the satisfaction of all IS user information needs.
Figure 2: Activity of LUCA‘s Application centres
We tried to look at the picture forthcoming from a subdivision of the whole country into regions surrounding our application centres. It is really a pleasure to state that our customers have trust in our system and services allowing applications go through the nearest centre. Only a small amount of applications from other regions was transferred via two major cities showing the traditional draught to centre. Herewith we can see some technologist - humanitarian exchange between Kaunas and Vilnius.
