dc.description.abstract | Achievement student selection aims to appreciate students who have achieved an achievement, both
in the academic and non-academic fields. This activity is carried out in stages, starting from
departments, faculties, and universities, to the national level. In the selection process, several criteria
were used: GPA, scientific work, presentation, English, and achievements were featured and
involved several juries to avoid subjectivity in the assessment. This study aims to get the best results
from the decision support system in Achievement student election in the Mathematics Department
of Jember University. Therefore, we need the fuzzy TOPSIS method to avoid and minimize
problems and to make multi-criteria decision-making easier. This study's ranking results were
obtained from the fuzzy TOPSIS method and standardized assessment method (based on higher
education guidelines). From the four candidates who participated in this selection, the two methods
give different results in the last two ranks. The fuzzy TOPSIS method ranking shows the results
sequentially for candidates B, C, A, and D. In contrast, and the standardized assessment method
ranking shows the results sequentially for candidates B, C, D, and A. This difference is caused by
the value of the criteria factor and the weight of the candidate criteria, but the fuzzy TOPSIS method
is simpler than the standardized assessment method. So that it can be recommended for the next
period achievement student election at the department, faculty, or university level. | en_US |
