Resident Director Application Form - UH Manoa Study Abroad

Summer 2024 at UH Manoa Study Abroad

Over the summer of 2024, I worked for the UH Manoa Study Abroad Center. I created a Resident Director application form through the Kuali Build app, allowing for efficient submissions for faculty applying to oversee Study Abroad programs. This streamlined the application process for Deans and Department Chairs across various UH departments. The form is still in use today and has proved useful in organizing applications.

Building and Maintaining the Form

I developed the document from the ground up using Kuali Build, setting up backend functionality such as automatic emails sent to the appropriate recipients when the form is submitted. With input from the Study Abroad staff, the form was adjusted and edited multiple times to meet necessary guidelines. The staff currently maintains the form, ensuring it continues to function smoothly.

Collaboration and Project Management

Through this project, I learned how to collaborate effectively to create an important tool for UH administrators. I received instructions on which fields were required and what modifications were needed. This experience also allowed me to practice project management skills, such as following a timeline and implementing iterative changes based on feedback.
