Abstract

The diversity less among the Alternative Energy Resources Technology Programs (AERTPs) in Turkey makes giving the “proper” decision by high school senior students hard. Literature review exhibits that there exists a larger than expected necessity for a ranking system of the two-year programs in vocational schools in Turkey so as identifying two-year programs compared to others. In this strategic decision context, it is especially important for the students to make a suitable decision associated with their higher education. Therefore, this study focuses on developing a specific ranking system of two-year energy programs in Turkey. In order to classify the programs, most important decision criteria should be required. In this aspect, a survey is applied on a hundred high school senior students to recognize which multi-criteria for selection an energy program they pick. Thus, the survey makes this study is more applicable to build a foundation for a field based ranking system in Turkey. In this regard, a framework for ranking of AERTPs during the academic year of 2019 in Turkey is accomplished using three methods of Multi-Criteria Decision Making Analysis including Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), Simple Multi-Attribute Rating Technique (SMART) and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS).
