1.0 Introduction
Every Student face numerous issues in his university life, one of the most common issues
are related to the career. Students face career related problems like struggling with choosing
a field, having no guidance, having no proper direction towards their goal. Uncertainty of
the future and inaccessibility to the professional career guidance leads them to confusion.
There is not reliable guidance provided to the students that help them to set their direction
in future. There are not enough professionals available to help them and it’s very expensive
to get their services. Most of the students don’t have access to them because either they are
unavailable or they don’t know how to get connected with them. In traditional approach,
there is one person who does the career counselling of students from all the fields which
cannot be efficient as one person cannot be an expert of every field. There isn’t any
interactive and easy to use platform where students can get professional help regarding their
career. The traditional approach to career counselling is to have a meeting with students
and identify their problems manually and give them directions. Its very time consuming
and difficult to keep track of each and every meeting and analyze the information manually
to extract a conclusion and save it for future use. Another problem student face is they
spend a lot of time in searching the events, workshops, internships and jobs related to their
field. They have to search on different channels like internet, newspapers and
advertisements to find the perfect fit. So, to resolve all these common problems of
university students, this system is developed.
University students, teachers and administrators can use the developed system by signing
up in it. Registered students are able to create their profile which will include their
demographic information, field, qualification and skills. This information is used to filter
content according to preferences. Students are able to choose their problem from provided
list of common topics. System detects their selection and provide them with all the possible
solutions. Students are able to connect with the counselors through video call where they
can discuss their problems with them. The conversation of the session is converted into text
and system analyzes it to extract information from it and save it for later use. It will also
help in keeping track and evaluate the session. The developed system with the collaboration
of BICON (Business Incubation Center of NUML) is providing the career counselling
service for the students to resolve their career related problems that helps them in setting
their future goals and achieve them. The developed system has a dedicated news and
updates section where all the latest news and updates are provided. The developed system

provides the information of Internships, seminars, workshops and jobs in one place to
facilitate students. The developed system notifies the users about the new openings, events,
and scholarships according to their filed and preferences.
1.1 Problem Statement

Every Student face numerous issues in his/her university life, one of the most common
issues are related to the career. Students face career related problems like struggling with
choosing a field, having no guidance, having no proper direction towards their goal.
Uncertainty of the future and inaccessibility to the professional career guidance leads them
to confusion. There is not reliable guidance provided to the students that help them to set
their direction in future. There are not enough professionals available to help them and it’s
very expensive to get their services. Most of the students don’t have access to them because
either they are unavailable or they don’t know how to get connected with them. In
traditional approach, there is one person who does the career counselling of students from
all the fields which cannot be efficient as one person cannot be an expert of every field.
There isn’t any interactive and easy to use platform where students can get professional
help regarding their career. The traditional approach to career counselling is to have a
meeting with students and identify their problems manually and give them directions. Its
very time consuming and difficult to keep track of each and every meeting and analyze the
information manually to extract a conclusion and save it for future use. Another problem
student face is they spend a lot of time in searching the events, workshops, internships and
jobs related to their field. They have to search on different channels like internet,

CHAPTER 2
EXISTING SYSTEM/BACKGROUND
6
2.0 Introduction
This chapter is about the background of the developed system and information of the
existing systems. Features of existing systems are analyzed. It is also discusses that how
our system “Web and Android based application for Career Counselling” tackles with the
limitations of existing systems. This chapter also analyses the existing systems and their
features generally.
2.1 Existing Systems

There exist many applications, which guide students in career choosing, provide them
solution regarding their skill development, and help them through counseling to achieve
their goals. We shortlisted a few applications based on their popularity and similarity to our
proposed application after taking into consideration some applications. The details of these
systems are as follows.
2.1.1 Edu vision

Edu vision is Pakistan's first educational consulting organization providing quality career
planning services and systemized educational guidance to the students and parents since
2001. This web application provides career counseling by setting appointment [1].
2.1.2 Career Connect

Career connect is a free tool that let the students take their career on demand interview
anytime, anywhere. This app provides online interviews. This app provides live chat,
quizzes, CV builder and field related job [2].
2.1.3 NUST Development Centre

NUST provides its students career development services. These services include self-
assessments, jobs and internship updates and other training services [3].
2.1.4 CIIT Development Centre

CIIT has its own student’s career counselling services. They provide online book
appointment service to its students. Students fill the forms in google forms and get notified
about their appointment once they get approved [4].
7
2.2 Limitations of the Existing Systems
None of the existing systems allows users to identify problem from predefined options and
profile assessment. The limitations of existing systems are that it has forum where student
communicate with Counsellor by send their queries in the forum. However, the issue is,
this way does not answer all the questions, most of the queries go unanswered. Student
cannot give feedback if he is not satisfied with the provided solution. The Career Connect
app does not have career advisers, job searching facilities and career coach. It does not help
in skill development things like communication skills etc. This app does not provide live
counseling with Counsellor. There is a simple static application of a magazine career360.
This app only provides career related information in magazines. Most of its features only
deals with European culture issues and this app does not entertain the users in Asia and
problems related to this side. All the provided information is according to European culture.
2.3 Comparison of Existing and Proposed System
The proposed system provides functionalities that existing systems does not provide. As
shown in the table 2.1 most of the existing systems do not problem identifier, profile
management as well as does not provide profile assessment etc.

2.4.7 Display latest news

System must display available internships, jobs and trainings. System must display all the
latest news and updates in updates section. System must display all the appointments to
admin. System must allow admin to upload news and updates.
2.5 Non-Functional Requirements

Nonfunctional requirements are the attributes that defines the quality of a system in terms
of behavior. They define that how easy and interactive the system is for its users. Following
are the nonfunctional requirements of this system:
2.5.1 Usability
The system should have an easy to interact interface so the users can navigate easily
throughout the system.
2.5.2 Reliability
The system should be consistent and the error tolerance should be as high as possible.
2.5.3 Scalability

2.6 Summary
Many platforms are currently serving the audience to help them in finding the solutions but
this system guide students in career choosing, provide them solution regarding their skill
development, and help them through counseling to achieve their goals. Some of the existing
systems are Edu vision, Career connect, and Careers360. These systems lack some features
that the developed system has. The features like problem identifier, profile management
and profile assessment are three of the many distinguishable features developed in the
system that existing systems lack. Similarly, along with the functional requirements.

CHAPTER 3
SYSTEM MODELING
3.0 Introduction
System modeling and designing is described in this chapter. The phases of modeling and
designing are discussed using different types of UML diagrams. Use Case Model is also
described in this chapter.
3.1 System Flow Diagram

It is a diagram that describes the sequence of actions involved in a complex system or
activity. Flow is defined using directed arrows and steps are defined using different diagram
shapes. It describes the flow of the system from the beginning to the end.
3.1.1 Flow Diagram Analysis

The flow of the system is students have to sign up first of all. Then user can login in the
system and create their profile which includes their demographic information, field,
qualification and skills. This information is used to filter content according to preferences.
Students are be able to choose from the options, “Career Counselling”,” Internships”,”
Seminars and Trainings”, “Info Section. If user selects the “Career Counselling”, further
options to choose from are displayed. He is able to choose from “Book Appointment”,
“Career Assessment” and “Problem Identifier”. If user choose the “Book Appointment”,
he is be able to request an appointment that will be sent for approval to the counsellor. If
user selects “Career Assessment”, his profile is analyzed to check where he stands from the
industrial prospective and where he lacks. Results are be displayed. If user selects “Problem
Identifier”, he is asked to choose a type from given options and then predefined multiple
interrelated questions are asked to narrow down the problem. If problem is identified,
solution is displayed to the user and if problem is not found then system prompts the user
to input the problem in a textbox and sends it to the admin for response. If user choose
“Internships”, available internships are displayed. If user selects “Seminars and Trainings”,
available seminars and trainings are displayed. If user selects “Info Section”, information
section is displayed where the information on most common topics related to the university

3.2 Use Case Diagram of System

A use case is a methodology used in system analysis to identify, clarify, and organize
system requirements. The use case is made up of a set of possible sequences of interactions
between systems and users in a particular environment and related to a particular goal. The
use case diagram describes the relation between all the use cases and users of the
application. These use cases are used in system analysis to highlight the system
requirements in an organized way. In the following diagram, most of the use cases have the
include relation with sign-up and create profile. There are two main users of the application.
They are User and Admin. The diagram shows that the user can sign-up with application
user can register themselves and then search for jobs, news, information and details about
seminars etc. User can check the training sessions. User can apply for the training sessions
and also apply for the counseling. Which helps user to know about their skills and some
career and academic based knowledge. It also shows that user can book an appointment
with the Counsellor who will help user in resolving his issues. Moreover, this diagram
shows that admin can manage the student’s record and also can approve the appointments,

CHAPTER 4
DEVELOPMENT METHODOLOGY
33
4.0 Introduction
The following chapter provides the development methodology and system designing used
in the development of proposed project. Student facilitation and Career Counselling is an
android and web based application that allows user to resolve career related issues via this
application. User will be able to obtain career counselling sessions via video calling,
information out latest internships, jobs and workshops, he will also be able to assess his
professional skills to identify where he falls in the merit of today’s world. The following
project is also signed to ease and automate the duties of career counsellor. The web-based
panel will be used by Admin, sub admins and career counsellor. Career counsellor will be
able to conduct counselling sessions online, and will able to analyse and document the
whole session for future use through feature content analysis. Sub admin will be able to
post updates related to his department. And main Admin will be the one monitors them.
This chapter also describes about the complete work process.
4.1 Development Process

All the modules of the project are created systematically and integrated with utmost care.
The requirements of all the project areas are summarily evaluated. By keeping in mind the
analysis of the requirement gathered from all project areas, modules are created with the
help of user interaction with the system as this system is very critical because this system
deals with users most critical issues. This system has two main parts, one is android
application for users and other is web application for the admins (counsellor etc.). Android
application is developed in android studio with java as backend coding language and for
the designing XML are used. For the development of web application PHP language is used
for the backend coding and for designing bootstrap is used. After the development of all
the modules, integration of the modules, including video calling, problem identifier, Career
assessment, jobs, and content analysis are done. At the end testing is performed so that all
the functionalities of the application can be used with ease and without any errors as this
system needs to be accurate.
The android application is implemented with the help of programming languages such as
java. For the front-end development XML is used. Due to its user friendliness nature, the
implementation of the application become easy. All the front-end components such as
buttons, picture box, image box etc. are developed using the XML. Android SP (Scale
Independent Pixel) and Android DP (Density Independent Pixels) are responsible for the
responsiveness of android application on different screen sizes. All the back-end
34
programming is done in java programming language with opp. Java is a very efficient and
powerful programming language for the android development. The development of the
android application can be achieved with the help of android studio tool which is integrated
development environment used for android development. Rest APIs are used to fetch the
data from database in JSON format which is then used in Android app. agile methodologies
are utilized in the application development. In the first phase of development all the
modules are developed separately. Each module is given a complete focus individually in
android studio as these modules have to address the most critical problems. The testing is
also performed on all these modules separately. The modules like career assessment, video
calling, content analysis and seminars etc. are developed separately, but in order to make
the complete application, all the modules are integrated. Software Development Kit or SDK
is fully fledged development environment that allows designers and developers to make
android applications. It is typically set of Software development tools that allow the
creation of certain software packages, software framework, hardware platforms, computer
systems, video game consoles, Operating System and similar development platforms. SDK
on Android Studio is used for the development of the Android application of this project.
For the web application admin side PHP is used for the development. PHP is open source
scripting language used for the web development and this language is also easy to
understand and easy to handle to the complex database management. For the designing
bootstrap framework is used. Bootstrap is open source CSS framework which is used for
frontend development. It contains CSS-JavaScript based design template.
4.2 Application Design

The main engineering frameworks are kept in mind to design an efficient application. User
needs are considered to make more effective design. The design of the system is kept simple
and user-friendly. The main focus of developers was to make the application more efficient
and easier to use. During the design the interface i.e. colors, buttons and themes are kept
according to the prospective of user. The admin panel is designed in a manner to make
features and components easily accessible to admins. The theme, color and fonts are
selected by keeping effectiveness and accessibility in mind. Tools like CSS, bootstrap are
used to design the admin panel.

4.3 Application Implementation
When the use cases and sequence diagram of all the functionalities are designed, the
implementation of the application has been started. The entire application was divided into
different modules and sub modules. The breakups of tasks created inter modular
dependencies and that is why following order of the design and development became
necessary during the implementation phase. Another important consideration during the
implementation was to make room for spot changes. If there is something that is finalized
during the planning phase, designing phase and all the way to the implementation of it, but
when it is being practically implemented, only then it might come to our knowledge that it
might not implemented technologically or difficult to implement. Due to this reason
implementation phase of application was executed in such a way that it welcomes the
changes. The main modules of the system are jobs searching, seminars, career assessment,
problem identifier, career counselling using online video calling support etc.
4.3.1 Login and registration

Registration is the initial step of the system. User is supposed to be registered in the system
for login. Once the user selects register option, a form is displayed, after completion his
request is sent to admin side. Once user’s request is approved, user is able to login and
access all the features of app.
4.3.2 Jobs Section

User is able to access different options after his successful login. Job section is one of the
options provided. Once this option is selected, user is able to view all the jobs of his related
fields in this corner. Different internships and jobs are posted in this section. All the jobs
and internships updates are posted by sub-admins. Sub-admins are in charge of a specific
department. Only one sub-admin can represent one department.
4.3.3 Seminars
Seminars is another option provided to the users, after selecting seminar option user is able
to see upcoming seminars with the full details like when, where and what the seminar is
about. This section is updated by sub-admin. Sub-admin of a department is able to update
the upcoming seminars with full details to create awareness among the students of that
department
36
4.3.4 Career assessment
Career assessment is one of the important feature of our application. This feature allows
the user to identify his capabilities with respect to his major and lets him recognize where
he stands of the basis of his professional skills. On the basis of provided data, a series of
question (with respect to the major of user) is displayed. The provided answers are analysed
by the system by comparing them with the average skill set required in the particular
industry and a calculated result is displayed on screen.
4.3.5 Problem identifier

Problem identifier works as a helping tool to assist user to get solutions of their issues. This
feature narrow downs the problem of user by asking a series of questions. As user opens
this module, a variety of options is displayed on screen asking him the major issues he is
experiencing. On selecting his most similar issue, a series of similar questions is displayed
on his screen until the problem is narrowed down. A solution is provided to him as his issue
is recognized. If the problem is yet not identified, user can proceed for counselling session.
4.3.6 Counselling through online video calling support

This module is most critical module of the whole system. This module allows user to
communicate with the counsellor through online video calling. Through this user can
individually contact counsellor for the counselling session.
4.3.7 Content analysis

This module records the video session between the user and counsellor and store it to the
database. Then module analyses the whole session between the user and counsellor by
converting whole video content to text and passes through different analyses technique.
Then it extracts some import information for the counsellor and for the creation of report.
4.4 High Level Design

4.5 Summary
For web Application, Bootstrap design framework are used which is a CSS3 and JavaScript
extension package used to design responsive user interfaces. For back end development,
PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) is used for the development of whole structure. For Android
Application, XML is used to develop the front end of the application. Android SP (Scale
Independent Pixel) and Android DP (Density Independent Pixels) are responsible for the
responsiveness of android application on different screen sizes. For back end development,
Java along with OOP concepts is used. Central Database is developed using SQL server
which is used by both the Web and Android Application. Different Web views are used to
connect the Android application with the web application.

CHAPTER 5
TESTING, ANALYSIS AND VALIDATION
51
5.0 Introduction
Testing includes identifying and eliminating errors from the system and then running it
under different real-world conditions. After the complete development of the system there
are many chances of errors to be occurred, so it is essential to test, validate and verify the
system before handing over to the customer. With these techniques we can minimize the
occurrence of errors. It can be done through various methods. There are different types of
testing methods which includes unit testing, integration testing, system testing, black box
testing and white box testing. These methods can also be used to validate or verify the
system.
Unit integration is done when all the modules of the system are in separate form and in the
later phase of testing, all these modules are integrated so that integration test can be
performed. To test the requirements of the system that whether system requirements are
completely fulfilled or not system testing is performed. All the functionalities of the system
are tested in system testing. The system response time is evaluated. Output is also analyzed
in system testing. Every single functionality is tested separately and evaluated on the basis
of output generated by the user’s input.
White box testing is performed to check the internal structure and logics of code while on
the other hand black box testing is performed to examine the external behavior of the
system which do not requires any coding skills. Different types of techniques are used at
different stages during the development life cycle.
5.1 Test Bed
It is platform for conducting demanding, transparent and replicable testing of scientific

theories, computational tools and new technologies. In order to test a system certain number
of the software and hardware tools are required. The system test bed includes all of these
hardware and software tools. For the system we developed “Student Facilitation and Career
Counselling”, test bed which we have used involves android phone having android version
marshmallow (6.0) or above with 2gb RAM and 2gb free memory space. Every single
functionality of the system is tested for every possible input.

improvements can be done in it. This application provides the services for the users who
are facing problems related to their career.
6.1 System Overview and Methodologies

This system is based upon modified waterfall method. Modified waterfall method follows
all the phase which are followed in pure waterfall method. Since, in pure waterfall method
one cannot change anything at any phase. Modified waterfall method enables the phase to
overlap when needed. It can also be divided into subparts when required after the system
is developed.
The system is web and android based application. The system is developed to provide the
services to the users those who are facing problems against their careers. Application
provides the services to the users of National University of Modern Languages. The system
allows the users to create an account which is further approved by the concerned
administrator. Once account is approved by the concerned administrator user is allowed to
login into the system. User can update his/her profile. User can add basic information,
education, personal skills, languages and professional skills. User can use the career
assessment feature to check where his/her professional skills stands. System will analyze
the professional skills of the user by comparing them with the average skill set required in
the particular industry. User can check latest news to stay updated. Jobs section will provide
a listing of available jobs posted by the admin. User can also stay updated about the
upcoming seminars in their field by visiting the seminars section. To enhance the
professional skills of students the trainings section will help by informing them about any
upcoming professional trainings and workshops. User can use the problem identifier feature
to identify his/her problem and system will provide a solution according to it. User will be
able to select from the most common issues and then further dig in to narrow down the
problem. User can request for an online counselling session with the counsellor. After
81
approval user can connect with the counsellor online. System will convert conversation into
text and then it will be analyzed to identify the problem of user by text analysis. Identified
issue will be displayed and counsellor will add remarks about it and it will be saved in
database
6.2 Limitations
This system can only facilitate Android users. Both users require good internet connection.
The system is limited to handle one video call at a time. Video call quality is dependent on
the quality of camera.
6.3 Milestone achieved

The milestone that we have achieved are mention below.
6.3.1 Sign up
Sign up page is developed user will create its account and the request is being sent to the
concerned admin.

for the counselling session before. Counselor will initiate the call on given time. User will
tell his/her problems and counsellor will guide him/her accordingly.
User is able to start a video call with counselor or can book an appointment. System
provides further two options. User can either start video call or book an appointment. If
students select the video call, system check the availability of the counselor for a video
session. If available, then system connect counselor and students through video call
otherwise system displays a message that counselor is unavailable

6.4 Future Work

Since the system is limited to the National University of modern languages in future this
system can be available for other universities to avoid the human interaction in the system
video calling feature can be eliminated by the self-assessment or carrier assessment feature
which will provide all the solutions in a really quick manner within seconds

Appendix I
Actor: Actors are parties outside the system that intract and communicate with the system.
Class Diagram: Class diagram in Unified Modeling Language is a type of static structure
diagram that describes the structure of a system by showing the system’s classes, their
attributes, operations, and the relationships among the classes.
Functional Requirement: These are those requirements that capture the intended
behaviour of the system. This behaviour may be expressed as services, tasks or functions
the system is required to perform.
Non-Functional Requirement:These are those requirements that specify criteria that can
be used to judge the operation of a system, rather than specific behaviours.
System Modeling:System Modeling is the process of developing abstract models of
system, with each model presenting a differenyt view or prespective of that system.
System Design:System Design is the process of defining the architechture, componets,
modules, interfaces and data for a system to satisfy specified requirements.
Sequence Diagram: A sequence diagram in a UML is a kind of interaction diagram that
shows how processes operate with one another and in what order.
System Construction:System construction is a way to produce a system that is ready for
acceptance testing by the customers, an aspect of this phase is thecreation of various
training materials and system documentation that support the new system. It is the detailed
creation of working meaningful software through a combination of coding, verification,
unit testing, integration testing, and debugging.
Use Case: A use case defines a goal oriented set of interactions between external actors
and system under consideration.
