application of ontologies and web information semantics. These fields ofinformation technology aims at interpreting the vast body of knowledge dispersed throughout theweb. Currently, the information on engineering curriculum web sites is heterogeneouslyorganized with different terminologies. Presently when users want to request information fromweb sites, they issue a search using a word-based search engine (e.g., Google or Yahoo). Theessential problem here is that searches are word-based, and the information is not clearlymeaningful on the web sites. This is where ontologies effectively and practically describeinformation on web sites using a meaning-based as opposed to word-based approach. Theobjective of our research is to support the understanding
