SITS Data Structures This document provides guidance on how SITS structures its data on courses, programmes, Summary description: routes, students and modules. Scope: All staff With effect from: March 2013 Other related policies/documents: Contact for further information: Deputy Registrar, Student Administration SITS Components SITS is made up of four major components: MAS Contains subsystems covering enquiries and undergraduate and postgraduate admissions Marketing and Admissions System SRS Contains details such as names, addresses, personal and demographic data of all Student Records students System CAMS Facilitates the management of courses and modules, and students’ progress through them Credit Accumulation Management System MENSYS Supports the facilities responsible for overall management of the SITS software Menu System It is important to understand that, although MAS, SRS and CAMS are closely linked in day-to-day work, they are potentially separate components. It is possible to purchase each individually, although at YSJ we have implemented all three. Because they are separate components they have their own coding systems. This is why there is a MAS course code and an SRS course code and CAMS programme and route codes. Course Hierarchy
