There are diverse kinds of methods for evaluation and ranking of the alternatives characterized by multiple criteria. In this paper, the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to the Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is integrated with Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) for evaluation and ranking of Engineering Education Institutions (EEIs). Two hypothetical decision making units (DMUs) called the ideal DMU (which consumes the least input to secure the most output) and the nadir DMU (which consumes the most input but produces the least output) are constructed and used as reference points to evaluate a group of EEIs based on their Euclidean distance from these reference points. The best relative efficiency of the ideal DMU and the worst relative efficiency of the nadir DMU are determined and combined for evaluation and ranking of 25 EEIs in Andhra Pradesh state in India. Input and output matrices of performance dimensions of EEIs are determined from the payoff values of the performance enablers of the EEIs and the relative weights of the performance enablers in a fuzzy environment. |
