Introduction to Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis

The course starts with a self-study period, and a task to formulate and structure a decision-making problem. The chosen problem will be used to formulate individual assignments.



The second part of the course consists of class-room lectures in the mornings and individual exercises in the afternoon. The initial lecture will address how to structure multi-criteria decision-making problems, and in the afternoon session, students will reflect upon and possibly re-structure their chosen decision making problems. Each day of the remaining lecturing period will contain lectures about different MCDA methods in the mornings, and in the afternoon the students will be applying those methods on their selected decision making-problems. During the third part of the course, the students will work on individual assignments, in which they conduct and report a full MCDA by used of two different MCDA methods which they think that are suitable for the chosen problem. The fourth and last part of the course is an oral presentation of the individual assignments for the other students, who will be expected to comment and discuss the presentations and the assignments.
