Web Application in Java for Tour Enrolment

Abstract

The objective of the project was to develop a web application based on the Java platform for students to send an enrolment request for the course called Study tour to St. Petersburg and for teachers to process the request on similar web interfaces. The course Study Tour to St Petersburg is a course offered by Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences in which student can get an opportunity to travel to the city of St. Petersburg in Russia. At present, a student willing to be a participant in the course needs to send an email to the teacher and the teacher confirms the request. The goal of the project was to make this request and response for an enrolment easier and organised by using a web application where the students can submit their request with their details in one side, while on the other the teacher can have easier view of the requests of the students and process them. The development of the project was carried out in various steps. The steps included analysing the requirements followed by application design based on the requirements and then the development of the system afterwards. Finally, the project was made ready with the targeted goals. The result of the project was the website which meets the targeted objectives of this project. The website is fully functional and currently being hosted by a cloud service provider called OpenShift Red Hat.
