Course Enrollment and Grade Management System
(Java)
Program code, explanation, and sample output
1. Purpose and Overview
This project implements a command-line Course Enrollment and Grade Management
System for a university. It supports adding and updating courses, creating and updating
students, enrolling students into courses with capacity checks, assigning grades, and
calculating a student's overall grade across enrolled courses. The design demonstrates
object-oriented programming principles (encapsulation, modularity, and clear class
responsibilities), as well as the effective use of static variables and static methods to track
enrollment and manage system-wide data.
2. Object-Oriented Design Summary
Student encapsulates student identity data and per-student state (enrolled courses and
grades).
Course encapsulates course identity data (code, name) and capacity rules; it maintains
per-course enrollment.
CourseManagement coordinates system operations using static collections for global
course storage and overall-grade tracking.
AdministratorCLI (main program) provides an interactive menu for administrators
and performs input validation.
3. How Static Members Are Used
Static members are used to represent system-wide state shared across multiple objects:
[Link] (static int) tracks total enrollment counts
across all Course instances.
[Link]() (static method) returns the above value.
[Link] (static list) stores all courses available in the system.
[Link] (static map) caches/calculates overall grade values
per student ID.
4. Program Code
Create the following files in the same folder (or within the same package). Compile and
run [Link].
