Abstract

Summary. Performance of a faculty is vital both for students and school, and must be measured and evaluated for positive reinforcement to faculty. Faculty performance evaluation problem is a difficult and sensitive issue which has quantitative and qualitative aspects, complexity and imprecision. In literature many different approaches are proposed in order to evaluate faculty performance. To deal with imprecision and vagueness of evaluation measures, fuzzy multi-attribute evaluation techniques can be used. In this paper, a comprehensive hierarchical evaluation model with many main and sub-attributes is constructed and a new algorithm for fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) that enables taking into account the hierarchy in the evaluation model is proposed. The obtained results from this new fuzzy TOPSIS approach are compared with fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) on an application in an engineering department of a university and some sensitivity analyses are presented.
