The model for supporting the student decision in choosing the subjects of specialty educational program based on VIKOR multi-criteria optimization method is developed in this paper. The developed model is the component of the dual education information system (when the student is trained in the company and educational institution at the same time on the basis of the contract). This component is a decision support tool for a student training by a dual education, taking into account the expert opinion of stakeholders in the learning process. The criteria of dual education stakeholders for ranking alternatives (subjects of the specialty program): student, educational institution, company are outlined. VIKOR method is modified by the selection of subsystems criteria in order to derive an integrated assessment of experts from different subsystems. The algorithm for integrating ratings of ranking subsystems is developed, taking into account the strategy of maximum group usefulness of VIKOR method. The weighting coefficients of subsystems and their criteria are determined by T. Saati method of hierarchies analysis. In order to take into account the uncertainty associated with the lack of information, intuitionistic fuzzy sets are used to assign assessments of the alternatives ranking by subsystem experts. The proposed modification of VIKOR method makes it possible to rank the alternatives with the involvement of different specialists with their own criteria system. This approach increases the accuracy of the obtained results, as the criteria are further divided into holders subsystems of the ranking problem. This approach enables to carry out deeper and broader analysis of ranking problem aspects. Numerical example of the developed model which confirms the acceptability of its application in practice in the dual educational process application is illustrated in this paper.
