Özet:

  An analytical method to reach the best decision is one of the most preferable way in business platforms. Many times, beside the measurable variables, there exist qualitative variables, or people are supposed to prefer the best among the many choices. When an analytical way to make a successful decision is needed, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is one of the best ways for deciding among the complex criteria structure in different levels. Fuzzy- AHP is the extension of AHP that is used when uncertainty affects decision making process. In this study, the authors aim at developing a systematic solution approach utilizing Fuzzy-AHP on a decision-making problem described as “selecting the best student” in an institution for a student exchange program being applied in Europe called Socrates/Erasmus. Fuzzy-AHP approach is applied in a Faculty of a University, and evaluations are performed with the academicians in the selection commission as a decision group. Fuzzy-AHP calculations are performed on this data collected through a question-form, and relevant analysis are completed to obtain the important values of the selection criteria. Finally, a systematic approach is developed as decision support mechanism for the decision makers who are the members of selection commission.
