What is Project MAUI and what does MAUI stand for?
MAUI is an acronym for Made At University of Iowa. Project MAUI is the new student information system implementation project that will replace our existing system. A complete glossary of terms can be found at http://provost.uiowa.edu/maui/glossary.htm. The original intent was to replace our existing Student Information System with a vendor product, Matrix, from SungardSCT Higher Education. The Matrix (MAUI 1.0) project ended in February 2006 with full consensus of the members of the University of Iowa implementation team. Although there was a delay, the same project group has begun a new effort to build a Student Information System, which has been named MAUI 2.0. From this point forward, Project MAUI refers to MAUI 2.0. The Admissions’ phase began summer 2006 and the Registrar’s Office began developing their module in early 2007. We are working on a five-year timeline with a projected completion date in 2011. Using a phased approach, various functionality will be implemented throughout
