Performance Analysis of Engineering Students for Recruitment Using Classification Data Mining Techniques

-Data Mining is a powerful tool for academic intervention. Mining in education environment is called Educational Data Mining. Educational Data Mining is concerned with developing new methods to discover knowledge from educational database and can used for decision making in educational system. In our work, we collected the student’s data from engineering institute that have different information about their previous and current academics records like students S.No., Name, Branch, 10, 12 , B.Tech passing percentage and final grade & then apply different classification algorithm using Data Mining tools (WEKA) for analysis the students academics performance for Training & placement department or company executives. This paper deals with a comparative study of various classification data mining algorithms for the performance analysis of the student’s academic records and check which algorithm is optimal for classifying students’ based on their final grade. This analysis also classifies the performance of Students into Excellent, Good and Average categories.
