Optimisation of Master’s Degree Programmes in Translation Based on Multi-Attribute Decision-Making Approach

Abstract

In this paper, first of all, in the quality assessment of the teaching quality of the translation course, it is proposed to use a multi-attribute decision model to assess the quality of the set of alternatives for all the courses and to use the existing decision ideal points to rank and select the best of a set of optimized solutions for the translation course through the hesitant fuzzy number and objective optimization model. Finally, to explore the optimization problem of the curriculum, a research analysis was conducted on MTI master’s students who recently graduated from the institution. The results show that by optimizing the MTI course specifically, the students’ positive interest (p1 = 0.03) and independent inquiry interest (p2 = 0.01) are less than 0.05, showing significant differences (p<0.05). The special optimization scheme of the MTI course proposed in this paper can reflect some problems worth pondering in the curriculum and provide a guiding reference for optimizing the MTI course in schools.
