Abstract
Decision making is one of the most crucial aspects of any circumstances encountered by human beings. Moving from one phase of life to the other, leads to dramatic changes in the various internal and external environment, especially when it relates to making a career choice. Such crucial matter, demands rationality and commitment for the decision taken to successfully counter the dynamics of the changed circumstances/environment. Decisions are based on an individual’s ability to take risk and rationale applied to opt for an alternative, amongst the various available. This paper develops a multi-criteria decision-making method (MCDM) to evaluate the graduate student’s attitude towards selecting career options. Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) and Technique for Order Preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) is used for ranking the different career options available to students after graduation.
