Application of the PROMETHEE Method in Determining Scholarship Recipients at University

This study aims to use the PROMETHEE method as a decision support system in determining the recipients of the Academic Achievement Improvement Scholarship at Universitas Dharmas Indonesia (UNDHARI). The methodological steps include problem identification, analysis, goal setting, and application of the PROMETHEE method. In this study, criteria and alternatives have been identified to evaluate achievement improvement scholarship recipients. The criteria weights are set, and the criteria preference types are determined. After obtaining baseline data from questionnaire assessments, pairwise preference values and multicriteria preference index values are calculated. Then, ranking is performed using the Leaving Flow, Entering Flow, and Net Flow methods, resulting in the priority order of Achievement Improvement scholarship recipients. The ranking results show that Irza Silvia (IS) has the highest Net Flow value (0.30), while Aldian Virgo Vani (AV) has the lowest Net Flow value (-0.35). Thus, the priority order from highest to lowest is IS (Irza Silvia), AV (Abdullah Gimnastiar), RD (Rini Damayanti), YM (Yesnia Marni), and AV (Aldian Virgo Vani). In the context of Net Flow scores, these results indicate that Irza Silvia (IS) has the greatest chance of receiving the achievement improvement scholarship. This study provides important insights for UNDHARI in the scholarship recipient determination process using the PROMETHEE method as a decision-making tool.
