Purpose – This study aims to develop a web-based academic scheduling system using a master course approach with an auto-generate mechanism for 16 meetings. Design/Methods –The research method employed is the prototyping approach, consisting of requirement communication, rapid design, prototype development, user evaluation, and system refinement. Findings – System feasibility testing was conducted using expert validation, resulting in a feasibility level of 96%, categorized as highly feasible. Reliability testing using stress testing with 10 concurrent users showed a 100% success rate, with an average response time of 1.43 seconds. Performance efficiency testing indicated an average schedule generation time of 0.87 seconds. The results demonstrate that the developed system is capable of automatically generating lecture schedules efficiently and consistently, reducing manual scheduling effort and improving academic scheduling management at the study program level. Research implications – The developed system contributes to improving academic scheduling management through automated and consistent lecture schedule generation. Originality – The system enables study program administrators to create a single master schedule, which is then automatically expanded into a complete semester schedule consisting of 16 meetings, addressing the limitation of existing academic scheduling systems that generally generate only basic timetable structures without supporting automated meeting generation for a full semester.
