Universities Select Oracle's PeopleSoft Campus Solutions to Enhance the Student Experience - Seite 2

• The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State), one of the largest universities in the nation with more than 90,000 students, selected PeopleSoft Campus Solutions -- running on Oracle WebLogic Suite and Oracle Database with Oracle Real Application Clusters -- to replace its aging infrastructure, enable integration and flexibility across its 23 campuses, and eliminate ancillary business systems.
• The university will also deploy Oracle Student Information Analytics to provide a reporting repository for student grades, performance, advising, and financial aid data. 
• With PeopleSoft Campus Solutions, Penn State will improve service to students, faculty, and staff -- including enhanced student admissions and registration, as well as simplified advising and financial aid. The university also plans to expand mobile self-service capabilities. The underpinning Oracle technology foundation will help Penn State make its architecture faster, more secure, and easier to integrate and maintain.
• While the university will deploy a single instance, the software will provide the flexibility to enable each campus to maintain its unique processes.
• Penn State plans to begin the deployment in June 2015 with admissions and continue to roll out features through 2016 to follow the stages of the student lifecycle. The university will work with Sierra-Cedar on the implementation.

University of Cincinnati

• University of Cincinnati (UC), a public research university with more than 43,600 students, will replace its mainframe legacy system with PeopleSoft Campus Solutions to improve communication among students, faculty, and staff; support campus engagement and student retention; and better compete with peer institutions.
• UC also selected a wide range of supporting Oracle solutions, including PeopleSoft Student Administration Integration Pack, Oracle Student Information Analytics, Oracle Exadata Database Machine, Oracle GoldenGate, Oracle Data Integrator, Oracle Service Cloud, and Oracle Marketing Cloud.
• With the full Oracle solution in place, the university expects to improve long-term strategic planning with accurate, readily available data.
• UC began the implementation in March 2014 and is working with Sierra-Cedar on the project, which is expected to conclude in 2016.
