HIGHER EDUCATION MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM BASED WEBSITE AND MOBILE APPLICATIONS

Electronic devices in the form of smartphones and tablets can now be used as information sources in an effort to build a management information system in universities. These electronic devices can shorten the distance between people in the college environment and can provide easy access to anytime and anywhere. Management information systems that are widely used today are generally still based on computer devices that have limited mobility and flexibility. To facilitate access to management information systems, the use of applications on mobile devices is now starting to become a new trend. This article will share experiences about developing a mobile application-based management information system. Development is carried out by referring to the 4D model (define, design, develop, disseminate). The research was conducted in the Djuanda University Bogor. This article will specifically discuss 1) the stage of developing a mobile application for a college management information system; 2) use the application within the scope of the university; and 3) supporting factors and inhibiting the use of applications.
