The solution of university course scheduling problem with a random number and a multipurpose mixed mathematical model

Abstract

University course timetabling problem, which occurs every education period, is a NP-Complete problem. There are several constraints that must be satisfied and purposes that are wanted to be reached. In this paper, a model in literature for university course timetabling is readjusted and it has been turned into multi-objective mixed integer mathematical model. Fuzzy AHP method is utilized to determine the objective function coefficient in the model. The efficiency of the model is tested on the Department of Industrial Engineering at Gazi University. As a result, an optimal schedule that courses are assigned according to desired objective is obtained.
