This paper intends to facilitate academic advising by means of optimal long‐term course planning (LTCP), which is instrumental in students' retention and success. LTCP ensures that students will satisfy the educational requirements without facing unnecessary delays. The proposed decision support system is based on an optimization model which deals with several student preferences, that is, maximum credits per semester, difficulty of courses, graduation semester, and elective courses priorities. The proposed system has been implemented in an industrial engineering department, and several improvements and modifications have been done based on student feedback. The developed system supports two kind of users, that is, educational staff and the students. The courses, their relationships, and regulation parameters are defined/set by educational staff, whereas students determine their own information and preferences, for example, finished courses, graduation target, interest for each elective course, complexity of courses, course load and complexity for each semester, and relative weights of objective functions. Considering theoretical issues, common applications have been integrated to form this system with simple and user‐friendly interfaces.

基于优化的学生个性化长期课程规划决策支持系统

本文旨在通过最佳长期课程规划 (LTCP) 来促进学术建议,这有助于学生的保留和成功。LTCP 确保学生满足教育要求,而不会面临不必要的延误。所提出的决策支持系统基于一个优化模型,该模型处理多个学生偏好,即每学期最大学分、课程难度、毕业学期和选修课程优先级。提议的系统已在工业工程系实施,并根据学生的反馈进行了一些改进和修改。所开发的系统支持两种用户,即教职员工和学生。课程,他们的关系,和监管参数由教育人员定义/设置,而学生确定自己的信息和偏好,例如完成的课程、毕业目标、每门选修课的兴趣、课程的复杂性、每学期的课程量和复杂性以及相对权重目标函数。考虑到理论问题,已经集成了常见的应用程序,以形成具有简单和用户友好界面的系统。
