Abstract:
This study investigated management information system useful to operation and control in educational management in Federal University of Oye-Ekiti. It revealed that there exist a significant relationship between the use of management information system and dissemination of information to support decision making in Federal University of Oye-Ekiti, Nigeria. Further studies affirm that management information system has capacity to enhance educational planning in Federal University of Oye-Ekiti. However, it should be noted, that there is need for the university to trained staff in the ICT department on sufficient knowledge on cyber fraud that would help to address server protection, server hacking, server confidentiality, e-payment transaction failures and complicated online application portal difficulties. The use of management information system in educational management has rapidly increased due to its efficiency and effectiveness. School managers who used to spend large amount of time in solving complex allocation problems (e.g., staff allocation, resource allocation, timetabling) and monitoring the school operations have now better options due to enhanced technology. Information technologies facilitate the decentralization of work tasks and their coordination in an interactive network of communication in real time. They allow for greater flexibility and networking that emphasizes interdependence, interaction, and constant adaptation to an ever-changing environment.
