Academic advising and degree planning platform for universities
Guide every student from entry to graduation with structured, compliant, and personalised study plans.
StudyPlanner uses constraint-based sequencing to automatically generate valid study pathways from structured curriculum data (CMS).
Outcomes for students, advisors, and institutions
The problem
Planning a university degree is complex.
Students must navigate:
- Program rules and requirements
- Prerequisites and sequencing constraints
- Subject availability
- Changing study loads and pathways
This information is often fragmented across systems and documents, making it difficult to construct a clear, compliant study plan.
As a result, planning is unclear, sequencing is difficult to manage, and validation often occurs after decisions are made.
What StudyPlanner does
StudyPlanner provides a unified platform for degree planning and academic advising.
It enables students and advisors to:
- Explore programs and select subjects through a guided interface
- Validate requirements in real time
- Generate structured, multi-term study plans
- Test alternative pathways while maintaining compliance
- Track progress against program rules
Student-centred design
StudyPlanner presents complex curriculum structures in a clear and usable way.
- Visual, intuitive interface
- Guided workflows for planning decisions
- Real-time feedback in context
- Supports both structured pathways and flexible exploration
- Full advisor functionality for managing and sharing plans
Designed for consistent use across desktop and mobile.
How it works
StudyPlanner generates and maintains study plans using a rule-driven planning engine based on curriculum structure and student context.
Plans update automatically as conditions change, ensuring they remain valid and achievable.
Why this matters

How StudyPlanner is different
Most systems either focus on compliance tracking or rely on predefined pathways.
StudyPlanner generates structured study plans dynamically, without relying on fixed templates, enabling both guided planning and flexible exploration.
Data-driven planning
StudyPlanner operates directly from structured curriculum data, enabling accurate rule representation and real-time validation.
