AB  - Academic programmes regulations play an
important role in the quality of graduates produced by
learning institutions. Development and enforcement of
these regulations by the institutions can be error-prone
due to the volumes of the regulations, complexity of the
regulations and non-homogenious academic journeys by
the students. In this study, an ontology of academic
programmes regulations is proposed. The ontology is
designed to model the academic regulations domain
knowledge and is intended to provide support in the
reference, development and enforcement of the
regulations. An ontology of academic regulations fora
case institution was developed. The ontology was based
on the Curriculum Course Syllabus Ontology (CCSO).
Preliminary assessment demonstrate that the academic
programmes regulations ontology (APROnt) could
support the processes of reference, development, revision
and enforcement of the regulations.
