Using Research Tracking Self Service

Note:

Before candidates and administrators can use this self-service feature, they must have a user ID, an EmplID, and a role that includes security access to the self-service pages.

Campus Solutions provides a useful set of self-service functions for a school's research candidate population as well as for their administrators. Research candidates can use the Candidate Center as a one-stop self-service page to view the status of their research projects as well as initiate service actions such as service requests or research service items. The Service Request page is used by the candidates to track and update their service requests.

Administrators can use the Service Request Dashboard to view and update the service requests in their queue. Administrators who serve as research or academic project supervisors can also manage their assigned candidates from the dashboard. The dashboard also displays graphically, in the form of pie chart and bar chart, the types and statuses of service requests assigned to an administrator. Administrators can initiate online notifications from their service request pages and also view their notifications generated by the Notification Framework.

Candidates, prospective applicants, and administrators can search for research topics that are offered in their institution through self service.
