Applying Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process to Explore the University Organizational Performance in Taiwan

The Ministry of Education also indicated that the number of Taiwan's students reduced from 5,384,926 to 5,287,226 from 2003 to 2006. Students reduced about one hundred thousand during this period. The number implied that Taiwan is facing a reduction of enrollment rate in colleges. The influence of the low birth rate on the university cannot be overestimated.
