Abstract

Selection of working area is one of the most important turning points in the human life. The main purpose of the selection of working area is planning a happy and successful future. There are many factors that interact with one another in this decision making process. In this study, in the content of these factors; feeling interest of lessons took in university education period, career opportunities for various working areas and gender are examined for 14 industrial engineering working areas. In addition, the scope of this study, we used Fuzzy Analytic Network Process (FANP) method to analyze these criteria and to determine the work areas wanted to work by industrial engineering students in order of priority.
