2. Aim• Affect at most 50 good students to the
different groups while keeping these homogeneous
– Numbers– Gender– Culture– Personalities

3. Decision process• Sorting and ranking step– Separate students into categories– ‘Accepted’, ‘Recommended’ and ‘Rejected’
• Assignment step– Use the obtained ranking and remaining
information (gender, PT & P preferences)

4. Model description• Methods
– Sorting & ranking step: FlowSort 1
• Weights
– Elicited from the results of 2009– Higher importance of 4th year compared to 3rd year– Lower importance of Motivation compared to other
marks– Global higher importance of the marks compared to
grades

Algorithm
(1) Start with student rank:1 (r=1)
(2) If he/she has made a choice;For the gender (M/F) of the student, check path’s
capacity• If there is capacity, assign the student to the path • Else go to the next choice
Else, put the student to the waiting list
(3) Let r = r+1. Continue with step 2.
If student is in waiting list: affectation to the path with minimum students

• Step 1. Sorting in 3 groups (Accepted, Recommended, Rejected)
• Step 2. Ranking for the first 2 groups to present to the DM
• Step 3. Application of the assignment procedure

6. Conclusions
![Page 21: Case study - Student selection for last year of Industrial Engineer at Politecnico di Roma](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070401/5681362f550346895d9da94b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
6. Conclusions
• Homogeneity
Number of students in each path, gender √ Cultures, variety of personalities X
• Number of selected students
Maximum of 50 from the best categories

6. Conclusions
• A student is rejected if– He/she cannot satisfy the minimum requirements– He/she is ranked below 50
• A student cannot enter his/her preferred path if
– The capacity is full with higher ranked students
