Web Application for Determining Outstanding Lecturers Using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) Method

Abstract

Higher education emphasizes efforts to maintain the quality of lecturers in the three pillars or tridharma of Higher Education (education and teaching, research and development and community service). The selection of outstanding lecturers is aimed at increasing the motivation, dedication, loyalty, and professionalism of lecturers. Sindang Kasih Majalengka University currently does not have a process to maintain the quality of lecturers so that to overcome this, a Forum Group Discussion (FGD) was formed at Sindang Kasih University to standardize the criteria for selecting outstanding lecturers in the hope of motivating lecturers to be even better. After that, an information system design is needed that can be presented. This is done by building a decision support system, namely a web application to determine outstanding lecturers by utilizing the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. AHP as a method that serves to process data from criteria that have been agreed upon in the Forum Group Discussion (FGD). The criteria include discipline, attendance, education, community service, and research. After that, the system provides recommendations for the level of outstanding lecturers at the Universitas Sindang Kasih Majalengka.
