A recommender system is a specific type of information filtering technique that presents the userrelevant information, which is implemented by creating a user's profile and comparing it to the other existing reference characteristics stored in the database. This paper developed a course recommender system capable of helping prospective students to choose relevant post graduate courses by multiple criteria decision making method. First, the multiple criteria decision making method was given. Then, the system prototype, which aimed at amalgamating the multiple criteria decision making model and the collaborative filtering recommendation system, was described. Finally the system architecture was illustrated.
