About the RO

Business Systems oversees the core systems for the Office of the Registrar, including Oracle Campus Solutions (MyServiceHub), Content 7 (document management), admissions integrated systems, and other systems in support of TMU's eight academic faculties. We provide the RO with project management and leadership for new system implementations, modifications, upgrades and troubleshooting.

The Policy and Academic Engagement team leads the development, implementation, application and education on new and existing Senate Policy as it relates to the work of the RO. This unit provides leadership and advising on policy, government reporting, audits, curriculum management, the Academic Advising Network, exams and scheduling. We aim to educate and empower university partners to make sustainable and policy-driven decisions to support students and quality academic pathways.

In support of student academic progression and graduation, we develop, test and maintain the Academic Advising (SAS) modules, online service tools, and the delivery of TMU’s cohort-based program curriculum through the Academic Advisement Report.

Curriculum Advising liaises with other departments, professional associations, professional regulating bodies, universities and government agencies regarding TMU’s curriculum and graduation eligibility verification.
