Purpose and Overview
The Student Information System (SIS) provides the foundational technology platform that supports student records, academic progress, course registration, and other key student lifecycle processes. The SIS is the system of record for all academic and enrollment data for undergraduate and graduate students at Miami University.
Miami is actively transitioning from our old SIS, primarily Banner, to Workday Student. This service centers on the future target in Workday Student, Miami’s modern cloud-based student information platform, and includes other integrated systems and tools that enable academic planning, advising, registration, grading, and degree progress tracking.
