The Impact of Students Inclinations on the Choice of Study Specialization using Bayesian Networks

In recent years, Universities had witnessed multiplicity and diversity in the fields of study specialization, through increasing the number of Specializations' years on one hand and creating faculties of new Specializations on the other hand. Our purpose is to investigate the students behavior in terms of the choice of their specialization major during their Bachelor studies. Through this research, we are trying to study the relationship between Students Inclinations and academic achievements in the chosen department in the school of Economics at Aleppo University using Bayesian Networks. Our findings show that there is no robust relationship between the students Inclinations and their educational achievements, which concluded that students are not choosing the major based on their knowledge skills. However, the students scores in accounting subjects, before specialization, played the main role in their decision.
