Data Warehouses

As a Business Intelligence Consultant, you have been tasked with submitting a proposal for creating an enterprise data warehouse for a university.

Currently, the information is contained in a separate database by each university department (HR, Payroll, Registrar, Bursar, etc.). Some of the information contained in the various databases for students are: courses, tuition payments, extracurricular activities, scholarships, grades, and personal information. Faculty/staff: positions held, courses taught, salary & benefits, personal information, and published work or research.

They want to use this data warehouse to be able to see a single view of all university information for students, faculty, and staff. You have been tasked with creating a project plan, choosing the BI tools that will be used, and giving cost information.
