Job to Major (J2M): An Open Source Based Application

This paper presents Job to Major (J2M), an opensource tool design to link job requirements with University of Southampton's major information. J2M currently provides two functions: suggesting the most suitable majors to potential students of the university based on the job requirements, find jobs that are closely link to what students acquire from their major. The development of J2M is according to Garrett's model which divides the application development mainly into three stages business goals analysis, system design and implementation. J2M build on existing open standards and supported by open-source of University of Southampton, Universal JobMatch provided by gov.uk and additional tools. The evaluation of J2M tries to show the functions achievement of J2M.
