Abstract

Studying the right field has great importance in human life and perspective. Rather than affecting the greatest employer’s ability, some studies see higher education as one of the leading factors that directly affects the style of life that we do. Therefore, today’s demands have increased significantly for skilled people, and prepared in complex areas, and a consolidation between market demands and university curricula is needed. This paper examines Data mining techniques which are used in order to create an automated model which makes comparisons between market demands and university curricula. We also present how proposed model is able to give recommendations, based on the comparison between market demands and university curricula.
