SSHub — Bowen Edu-Tech Platform

Bowen University's primary academic platform, built in-house to replace dependence on Upperlink EduChoice and make institutional changes faster to deliver.

Results and deliverables

  • Replaced dependence on Upperlink EduChoice
  • Kept core academic operations on an institution-owned platform
  • Allowed required changes to be handled without waiting for a third-party delivery schedule

Overview

SSHub is Bowen University's primary academic management platform. It was developed in-house to replace dependence on Upperlink EduChoice and give the institution direct control over its academic workflows and delivery schedule.

Built as a team effort, I served as a full-stack engineer contributing to architecture decisions and substantially building the student module, staff module, results and transcripts, result reconciliation for students transferring between programmes, and student elections.

Modules

  • Student Module — Student records and academic self-service workflows
  • Staff Module — Staff-facing academic and administrative workflows
  • Results & Transcripts — Result processing, publication, and transcript data
  • Result Reconciliation — Historical result handling when students transfer between programmes
  • Student Elections — Digital election workflows for student representation

Business Impact

By building and maintaining SSHub in-house, Bowen University reduced its dependence on Upperlink EduChoice and retained direct control over its academic platform. The institution could implement required changes on its own schedule instead of waiting for a third-party release cycle, while reducing external subscription expenditure.
