2025 Introduction to Programming Project Due Date: 10-05-2025

Corse Code: BSCS 1350, Course name: Introduction to programming

Value: This project is worth 15% of your final assessment in the unit.
Submission Due Date: 10 May 2025 & Demo on 15 May 2025
Type of project: Group Assignment (4 students in each group)
Aims: This assignment aims to provide hands-on experience in building a structured,
menu-driven application using Python. Students will develop a Student Management
System that allows users to manage student records, courses, grades, schedules, and
registrations through a terminal based interface.
The project reinforces key programming concepts such as input/output operations,
conditional logic, loops, lists, and function design. It also encourages good coding
practices, teamwork, and problem-solving skills. By completing this assignment,
students will demonstrate their ability to design, implement, test, and present a real-
world application aligned with the topics covered throughout the course.

Student Management System

Your team is assigned to develop a Student Management System using the Python
programming language. This system will operate through a text-based menu interface,
allowing users to manage student records, course offerings, grades, class schedules, and
registrations. Users interact with the system using a numbered menu.
The course consists of the flowing menus:
Menu Items
1 - Student Information
2 - Course Information
Main Menu 3 - Grades
4 - Schedule
5 - Registration Press 9 to exit.

1- Display all student information

2- Add student

Start with the following implementation steps:

- When the program starts, display the Main Menu and prompt the user to enter a
number corresponding to a menu option (e.g., entering 1 should navigate to the
Student Information Menu).
- Ensure the program continues running in a loop until the user explicitly chooses to
exit by pressing 9.
- If the user enters an invalid option, display an appropriate error message and re-
display the current menu for a valid selection.
After complete creation of the above menus, below table contain the description for each
item, write code for each item:

While writing your project code, keep the following tips in mind:

• ✅ Follow Best Practices: Use meaningful variable names, consistent indentation,

and add comments to explain your code logic.
• 🧩 Modular Design: Create separate functions (methods) for each task—such as
adding a student, deleting a course, or displaying grades—to make your code
organized and reusable.
• 🔄 Use Loops and Conditions Wisely: Make sure your menus and input validations
use appropriate loops and if-else statements to handle unexpected inputs smoothly.
• 🗂 Keep Data Organized: Use lists to store and update student, course, and
registration data in a structured way.
• 💬 Add User Prompts and Feedback: Clearly prompt users for input and confirm
actions like "Student added successfully" or "Invalid ID, please try again."
• 🧪 Test Regularly: Test each function separately before integrating it into the full
menu system to catch errors early.
