College Ranking Analysis Using VIKOR Method

Abstract

College ranking is the main thing used as a basis to attract prospective new students. Prospective new students will generally look for related information from which universities are the best to choose in the future. In the ranking of universities based on the official page of the Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education, the ranking of universities, both public and private, can be a reference for recruiting prospective students. The better the college ranking, the more attractive prospective new students are. To determine the ranking of a university, a decision support system is needed. There are many methods available from the decision support system, but in this study, the author will use the VIKOR method (Visekriterijumsko Kompromisno Rangiranje), which is part of the MCDM (Multi-Criteria Decision Making), as a solution to these problems. The VIKOR method is a multi-criteria optimization method that can be used on fairly complex systems. In this study, the sample data used came from 10 universities in the city of Medan, where the initials of each naming were colleges A to J. From the results of research analysis using the VIKOR method, the ranking results were as follows, where college B got the first rank with the lowest score of 0. Then the second rank was college G and in the third rank was college H with each score of 0.248211396 and 0.304702661. For the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh to tenth ranks, they are sorted from colleges A, I, C, E, F, D, and J.

A Novel Strategic Approach to Evaluating Higher Education Quality Standards in University Colleges Using Multi-Criteria Decision-Making

“…The VIKOR method is one of the better models that higher education stakeholders and researchers have identified to help provide better webometric data and rankings for university sites. As a result of the approach, academic prestige and quality of education will be improved [59].…”

Decision Support System for SmartPhone Selection with AHP-VIKOR Method Recommendations

“…By knowing the number of each alternative and the maximum number of each alternative, it is possible to calculate the index value as the final value of the ranking process from a number of alternatives using equation 10. alternatively, the resulting index provides an overview of decision-making support from the collaboration (Perdana & Budiman, 2021) of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method with the VIKOR method which produces optimal decision priorities as the final process of a long mathematical calculation (Waas et al, 2022). Determination of the magnitude of the priority index with the Qi dimension using a balanced presentation by assigning a value of the v dimension with fifty percentage points each (Haji et al, 2019), (Mardani et al, 2016).…”

Ranking Universities in Medan Using WoE and IV in Weighting of MAUT

“…This method uses a scheme in which the final evaluation of an object is defined as a weight summed with a value relevant to its dimensional value (Perdana & Budiman, 2020). Other related studies using DSS method that have been carried out previously to rank universities include the application of the Technique For Others Reference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method in ranking campuses in Medan (Lestari & Mardiana, 2020), the use of the Višekriterijumsko Compromise Rangiranje method (VIKOR) to rank universities in Medan (Perdana & Budiman, 2021), the application of weighting modifications using the Majority Vote method contained in the Bagging method in the Weihgted Product (WP) method , and the application of the Majority Vote (MV) method in modifying the weighting of the Multi Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT) method in the same case, campus ranking in Medan (Farhana, Perdana, & Fadilah, 2022). The results of previous studies obtain the optimal results in the highest ranking of several universities in Medan.…”
