We are looking for a new online catalog solution, perhaps one that will not require an API to integrate with our D7 web site.

Has anyone created their catalog or bulletin in Drupal?

If so,

• How did it go?
• Can you provide a link to your catalog?
• Did you do it in-house or have outside help?
• Were there any modules that were a particular help?
• Any Drupal development companies you want to mention?

Thanks for any feedback or suggestions...

This is an editable Google spreadsheet of higher ed sites currently using Drupal. Please help by adding your college or university site with a few details about your installation(s):

The read-only version of the spreadsheet is here (plain HTML without Google Docs):

Please add and share these links.
The spreadsheet was started several years ago by Jay Collier, http://jaycollier.net

I recently completed the migration of the North Dakota State University Libraries website from WordPress to Drupal. I was new to Drupal when I started, and the migration and design team was me, so the team didn't really know what it was doing for a while. :)

Why there are very less number of college professors/lecturers from India joining drupal groups? If quality of education(especially in India) needs to improve, I think they should be more thronging into open source groups like in drupal groups.

Any ideas to make this happen?

We're just compiling a list of Australian Universities using Drupal, and are sure to not know about a lot. If you know of any, please list them in reply to this thread.

Hello,

I'm a GSoC student working on Drupal working on .. I'm heading into my last year of my computer science bachelor (University of Antwerp), which means I'll have to do a bachelor thesis and I was thinking of doing it on Drupal. So I'm looking for a project. I don't really know what I want to do, but I was thinking somewhere in the direction of Drupal 8 core or the Prairie initiative however I'll take all the ideas I can get.

So there you go, I'm looking for a project that would qualify the following (loosely translated from dutch):

Dear members,

Please invite more students and professors to join this group:

We need to increase drupal awareness as much as possible. This will definitely help the entire industry as a whole.

I want to create a programmes and courses catalogue. To achieve this I am thinking these steps :

1. Create a content type which contains the programme's details and named it Programme, eg. Bachelor of Engineering.
2. Create another content type which refer the programme as a parent and named it Course, eg. Electronics Lab.
3. Add another reference where the course have dependencies with another course, eg. Electronics Methodologies (a dependency of Electronics Lab)

Is there any module for this or any other way?

Colleges in India are looking for ways to organize more programs/events that enable students to become more usable in Industry. Many students in India are in the dark and don't have any clue as to what need to be done to become usable for the Industry.

I work for Georgia State University as a web developer. We are currently in the process of evaluating new CMS options, as our current CMS is outdated and approaching the end of its product life. Drupal has been proposed as an option, and I am a strong advocate of it. However, there are some major concerns with whether it is "robust enough", "secure", and other such things. The webmasters and IT folk are requesting that we have a "sales rep" from each vendor come and make a presentation. However, as Drupal is an open source system, that's going to be pretty challenging.
