Abstract: World university rankings have positively influenced the development of organisations and widely attracted the attention of policy makers, especially in educational institutions. Universities have since developed systems to help decision makers in strategic planning for the ranking agenda. However, to date there has been no standard or generic model established for the university ranking information system. By implementing standard or generic requirements, developers and system analysts can simplify the system design phase and improve the reliability of system deliverables. Therefore, the main aim of this study is to construct a requirement model for the e-Ranking Dashboard System (e-RDS) by using Unified Modeling Language (UML). Requirement development phases have been adopted to achieve the objectives of this study and a set of questionnaires has been used to validate the prototype. As result, users gave positive feedback on the e-RDS’s effectiveness and ease of use.
