Abstract: Faculty evaluation in academia is a serious concern for higher-education administrators. This study develops a model for rank and tenure (R%T) decisions using an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach. Literature review suggests most R%T evaluations are rather subjective in many institutions. A case method approach is used for the development of a model and demonstration of its use. The proposed evaluation model provides objectivity, transparency and customisation for R%T committee decisions in higher-education institutions.

Keywords: analytic hierarchy process; AHP; rank and tenure; R%T; university promotion decisions; decision transparency. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
