FUZZY ANALYTIC HIERARCHY PROCESS AND TOPSIS FOR PART-TIME STUDENT SELECTION

The object of this study is about offering possible solutions to deal with the problems emerged in the selection of students working part-time in higher education institutions. University students are employed in accordance with their class hours according to the procedures and principles of part-time student work in higher education institutions in certain units of university. These students are employed in temporary jobs in their spare times besides their education hours according to their interests and skills contributing to their growth as productive individuals with discipline by providing both financial gain and application skills. Universities may encounter more demands than their needs whether they carry certain criteria for working in designated units. There may be unjustness in selection of the most suitable student due to these demands. In this study, a software was developed for assigning these part-time students applied to work on the web environment by using the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (F-AHP) method. Using TOPSIS software developed and with this software has been shown to accomplish a fairer choice than the other available part-time student selection tool currently used.
