U-Funded

U-Funded is a project that is sponsored by the UJ SRC trust funds community.

About UJ SRC

The Student Representative Council Trust Fund at the University of Johannesburg is an institution organised to provide financial assistance to it's students, essentially with registration fees. 

Additionally, they link well-performing students to further external bursaries. 

Did you know?
The number of applications increased from 4000 in 2022 to 8000 in 2023! Now that's alot of applications to deal with!

Can you imagine? 
The SRC trust funds office, with a limited staff, have to currently manually flow through the entire application vetting process!

The project shown in the video above is a website and mobile application that aims to improve the efficiency and productivity of the SRC, making it easier for students to apply for funding.

U-Funded

Students have the option to apply for funding through both mobile and website, according to their convenience. Furthermore, they can keep track of their applications, resubmit any rejected docuements and contact the SRC office for any queries.

The current system in place by the SRC requires a lot of physical paperwork to be done to process applications. Our project aims to digitize the whole application vetting process and provide reports on the funding management. 

Consulting

The UJ SRC consulted the team on how they wanted the project to be done. With a thumbs up from their representative it was clear they were satisfied with the project.

Strategy

The team made use of multiple languages including. Javascript, C#, HTML and MVC. The use of outside libraries from Highcharts for reporting.

Mission

To create a website and mobile app tha would help the SRC team handle the applications and make it easier for students to apply.

Investment

The only investment that the team made was to get clothing made to represent who they are together.
