Abstract

Monitoring undergraduate thesis progress at Budi Darma University was supported by administrative records and separate documents, making it difficult to obtain an integrated view of title approval, supervision progress, revisions, and completion status. This study designs and implements a web-based student thesis monitoring application using the Prototyping Model. A qualitative system-development approach was adopted, with requirements collected through an interview with the Head of the Information Systems Study Program, thesis-monitoring documents, and literature review. The prototype was implemented as a functional web application using PHP Native and MySQL. Three role-based users were defined: study-program administrator, supervisor, and student. The application supports title submission and verification, supervisor assignment, student and lecturer data management, thesis-progress recording, supervision notes, revision tracking, detailed monitoring, and monitoring reports. The system was evaluated using Black Box Testing across 13 functional scenarios covering authentication, title submission and approval, rejection, progress entry, supervisor dashboards, supervision notes, revisions, reporting, and logout. All scenarios produced the expected outputs and were classified as valid. The results demonstrate that the implemented prototype satisfies the specified functional requirements and centralizes thesis-monitoring information within a single role-based application. The study is limited to functional testing in a local development environment; performance, security, usability, and production-scale integration with the academic information system remain subjects for further evaluation.
