Abstract: | The application of the analytic hierarchy process /AHP/ to the selection of a doctoral programme is described. First, the AHP procedure is discussed. It is followed by a description of a hierarchy for selecting doctoral programme that includes the perspective or career objective of the decision-maker as what we call a pseudo level. The hierarchy is illustrated in a case study with MBA students contemplating a doctoral programme. The results are discussed and the importance of perspective as a discrete criterion is highlighted. |
