Research on the Application of AHP-Based Models to Higher Education Systems

Abstract

In this paper, we will start from constructing a healthy and sustainable higher education system by using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to evaluate four guideline layers and fifteen measure layers, calculate the corresponding weights of each indicator and pass the consistency test. Then our model will be applied to three countries, China, Germany and Canada. And then each indicator will be scored high, medium and low by questionnaire and expert evaluation, and the combination of AHP and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method (FCE) will be used to quantify the comprehensive scores of higher education systems in these three countries.

Analyzing higher education performance by entropy - TOPSIS method: A case study in Viet Nam private universities

“…5 The studies did an empirical analysis of operational efficiency of Vietnamese higher education institutions, and 7 found a benchmark assessment of Vietnamese universities through teaching and research and revenue performance. In recent publications, other widely used methods to assess the quality of higher education are Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), [9][10][11][12] Vise Kriterijumska Optimizajica I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR), 13,14 Weight Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS), 15,16 Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution. [17][18][19] Each method has its advantages and is applied by researchers following their purposes.…”
