Purpose -The purpose of this research is to examine the undergraduate thesis methodology, programming languages, and databases utilized to create thesis projects. The study's findings will open a wide range of researchable topics and will usher in new trends in computer science. There will be new insights in developing and proposing thesis proposals which will introduce various applications of a prospective research study. 2096Method -The manuscript from 2005 to 2019 served as initial information with the name of students, advisers, and panel members. The titles are converted into lowercase characters for easy categorization utilizing the features MS Excel transposition method and PivotTable. Special symbols like dash, colon, parentheses, slash, and apostrophe are removed to provide a list of common words. Standard frequency count and categorization of special project titles were used to count per year, filter, and categorize the titles according to keywords.Results -The study showed that students are familiar with different methodologies, programming languages, databases, types of development, and application tools in writing special projects. Most projects are inclined toward a desktop application that uses Visual Basic as the programming language.Conclusion -In software development, they used application tools to support the development process of the applications, and they used open-source tools. The type of study or research dictates the right decision in choosing the right methodologies to meet the study's objectives. They used tools to improve their design, convenient interaction with programming languages, and practical wise for faster development.Recommendations -The results will be an opportunity to expose and explore computer science researchable areas, especially theories and concepts of computing. The study results shall serve as Manuscripts that are valuable assets of the institutions and should be preserved.Research Implications -Capstone initiatives significantly contribute to the government, academia, business, cooperatives, religious institutions, and private groups. Approximately 60% of capstone projects are directly related to or have resulted in information systems for the organization. This advancement significantly affected the ITE program's directions, and the study established research options, including the capstone project's proposed research fields. Furthermore, supply excellent inputs to academic programs that will open new trends in researchable domains. Once students begin to submit capstone projects, this may have an impact on the research fields of the IT degree program.
Purpose -This study aims to provide a review of the thesis submitted by undergraduate students and provide sound inputs to academic programs which shall open new trends of researchable areas. This may also influence the research areas of the IT degree program once students started to propose capstone projects. More importantly, the output of this study shall give faculty members the insights of setting the capstone development projects and encourage them to introduce diverse applications of technology Method -The samples of the study are the manuscript Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) obtained from 2011 to 2019 with capstone details (i.e. name of a student, capstone titles, adviser, panel members). These manuscripts are extracted from the CSIT faculty department, faculty storage room, department computer, and main library of the University. A total of two-hundred seventy-three (273) manuscript titles were retrieved for analysis. The titles are converted into lowercase characters for easy categorization utilizing the features MS Excel transposition method and PivotTable. Special symbols like dash, colon, parentheses, slash, and apostrophe are removed to Research Implications -Almost all developed capstone projects are inclined to browserbased application development and developed using PHP scripting language. The inclusion of information like tools and applications (including the versions) used in the development provides a general idea of the process. Discussion of current trends and potential researchable areas could be presented before the capstone project proposal. This would give students insights and probably room for opportunity to expose students to higher learning ability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
