Instructions & Deliverables
The scenario:
Your group is assigned the task of studying and proposing the foundation of
a new higher education institution in Oman. This will be an institution mainly
focusing onto four (4) different academic areas/fields, i.e. Tourism &
Hospitality, Logistics, and two more of your choice.
The deliverables:
Your task is multiple:
1. Decide on the 4 different areas to be covered academically by the
college by creating the same number of departments into the college. Your
decision should be based on the needs of the country and the region you
are interested in and supported by official governmental or other expressed
motivations (1 page, 3-4 sources, 1 point).
2. Identify the necessary resources you will need either to hire or to build in
order to successfully found this new institution. The resources should be both
human, infrastructure and equipment, and other as you see fit. You should
support your arguments based on the relevant sources from the local reality
(1 page, 3-4 sources, 1 point).
3. Identify, describe and justify the assumptions made as part of your
estimations (1-2 pages, 1 point).
4. Identify and explain the possible risks in the short- but also in the long-run
of realizing your plan in a financially viable way. How are you planning to
address those risks? (1-2 pages, 1 point).

5. Estimate the initial (start-up) costs to have the institution up and running
without students during its first year of operation. Use MS Excel to prepare
and present your ideas and calculations/estimations. What are the critical
points of your plan as they appear in your worksheet? How do they affect
the viability of your plan? (1-2 pages of an Excel worksheet and a possible
Excel chart, 2 point).
6. Estimate the first five (5) years of operation of the institution and calculate
its costs and profits. Identify and analyse those variables that seriously will
affect this long term planning (1-2 pages of 5 Excel worksheets and possible
Excel charts, 4 points).
7. Identify four (4) different areas that an information system to be built
needs to cover in order to efficiently support the day-to-day operations of
the plan, e.g. students, courses, etc. Create the relational database and its
tables that will implement this. Present this DB using appropriate means as
you see fit (1-2 pages, 3 points).
8. Create those eight (8) important queries that are necessary to operate
the DB in an efficient manner. Present those queries and a sample of their
functionality (1-2 pages, 3 points).
9. Create those four (4) important reports that are necessary to showcase
the current standing of each of the 4 different fields/areas covered (4-5
pages, 3 points).
10. Make sure your project (report and presentation) are professional and to
the point (1 point).
Important notes:
1. This is a group assignment. All members of each group must be fully
involved in it and collaborate. During the presentation of the project an
internal evaluation of each group member will be required to verify each
member’s contribution.
2. Plagiarism is a serious academic offense and will not be tolerated. The
members of each group may share and contribute their opinions and work
with each other but only in the group not in between them.
3. The presentation and the submission of the group assignment will be
given at the end of the sessions of the 8th week (last week of classes).
