Academic Records Management
System (ARMS) Project
ARMS stands for Academic Records Management System, a web-based tool geared at satisfying
Makerere’s dire need for a computer-based system to support the university’s logical and physical
academic infrastructure. The breeding ground of this initiative has already been identified as the
faculty of technology, which also doubles as the project’s prime test center. The Project is part of
the ICT systems-based knowledge management and deployment advocacy. It is partly funded
through the Department of Engineering Mathematics by the Faculty of Technology. The project
strategic goals are:
