Abstract

We all have a fixed amount of time in a day but the list of activities to be carried out in the day is pretty long. So, prioritization of the tasks in the list is an imperative. Further, in any decision making exercise, we have criteria. We realize that, in general, all of these criteria are not of equal importance. Therefore, in order to make a good decision, we have to prioritize these criteria. In fact, we prioritize every day. The objective of this essay is to show how to perform prioritization scientifically using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Finally, I have outlined ten areas in a university administration where AHP can be applied to do the task of prioritization.
