  • Abstract
    Main goal of this paper is the proposal of modified university ontology as a part of University data warehouse. The existing ontology does not include all the required concepts and information that are necessary in the evaluation process. In a first step, university ontology is needed to define the base classes that become entities and their associations. After design phase and verification of class diagrams that present our proposed ontology, the mapping into the Data Warehouse multidimensional Star Schema is presented. The most valuable contribution (after implementation phase) will be the possibility to online evaluate the study achievements of students either individually or globally for a departments and faculties according to various parameters, which will undoubtedly increase the quality of pedagogical process. And it should decrease student failure rates.
