The Higher Education information you need can be at your fingertips

What is BRITE?

BRITE (Business Reporting and Intelligence Tool for Education) is a tool which allows an institution who is a BannerĀ® by Ellucian customer to retrieve data from their student information system in an easy to use web format. The system is developed for faculty and administration alike with its myriad of reports available for retrieving timely information to aid in decision making at all levels of the institution. BRITE also contains an optional student interface allowing students to access information about their current academic advisor, print their class schedule, generate an optional schedule based on course availability, and more!

Why BRITE?

BRITE provides faculty and administration with reports for retrieving timely information to aid in decision making at all levels of the institution. The reports range from real-time sortable/searchable/downloadable class lists and current major listings to historical business intelligence such as enrollment trends, faculty teaching load history, and more for planning, trending, or academic analysis. BRITE also contains an optional student interface for accessing information about their academic advisor, print a class schedule, or view an unofficial transcript from the easy to use, AJAX driven interface. BRITE is easily integrated in to a university's existing IT infrastructure.
