Abstract. Engineering and doctoral courses are considered to be golden professions for successful life. India is the largest Engineers' producing country, with changing technology, education system also has been changed from Gurukul to new modern technology based teaching system. Learning and knowledge are correlated terms, which go side by side and have imperative value and learning right knowledge from the best educational institute plays a vital role in one's life. IIT's, NIT's and Govt. institutes could not accommodate all the aspirants who have dreamed to be an engineer, certainly they are required to take admission in some private institutions. Due to numerous engineering institutes and universities this becomes a tedious job for both the parents and aspirants to select a perfect institution. Multi Attribute Decision Making (MADM) methods provide a ranking of the available alternatives thereby, decision of critical thinking become easier. The present paper examines the application of few MADM paradigms for selecting the most suitable academic institution, four state private universities of state Uttarakhand are considered as alternatives and evaluated and prioritized on seven major criterions.
