The aim of this course is to enable students to transform their theoretical knowledge of international trade into practical experience through game-based learning and simulation activities. Through simulated business environments, students engage in export and import operations, international marketing, pricing, contract management, payment methods, logistics, customs procedures, and risk management. The course aims to enhance students' decision-making, problem-solving, teamwork, and strategic thinking skills in international trade contexts.
Fundamental concepts of foreign trade; export and import processes; international market research; customer and supplier management; pricing, payment, and delivery terms in international trade; logistics and customs procedures; trade documentation; risk management; and international trade strategies. Application, analysis, and evaluation of these topics through game-based learning methods and computer-supported simulations.
