Universities and higher education institutions are typically thought of as places where information and data disseminate from. However, from a business intelligence perspective, there is also a large influx of data at these types of institutions. For example, universities collect and store datasets regarding student demographics, academic performance, housing status, meal plans, academic departments, class enrollment levels, and other important information.
To help manage all these variables, and make the best use of available resources, many universities deploy business intelligence tools. By leveraging business intelligence tools, university staff and administrators can convert all their raw data into visually intuitive dashboards.
Universities can compare and monitor student performance and gauge the effectiveness of the educational process. The right business intelligence solution should be flexible enough to be used in an educational setting and robust enough to provide powerful data mashup and drill down capabilities. Data mashup enables users to compare disparate data sources and drill down capabilities allow users to pinpoint problem areas.
