Support for Information Management in Virtual Organizations

In this thesis work we are trying to find the different means to develop an organization (especially Educational Institute) so that it would be prominent in providing the most suitable and best services for the students. In turn helps itself for growing its fame and name in the international market. We hope that this document would provide information for students as well as the management of the university about what are the services and what the students should expect from the university also the management should know how the services and information support should be delivered focusing on students requirements.

Globalization and innovation are revolutionizing the higher education forcing to create new market trends. Different nations have their own pattern and framework of education in delivering the educational services. Educational institutions are also seeking different organizational and behavioural changes for their better future as they hunt for new financial resources, face new competition and seek greater prestige domestically and internationally. The coming future will decide which universities would survive the market trends, competition and expectations of the student(Clients). The survival-of-the-fittest paradigm framework plays a prominent role in ideas of how the higher education would be delivered to the students in future with the Instruction Technology and distance education. In our thesis we try to provide some information about how to support and manage the information in Virtual Organizations.
