Objectives of the Course

The aim of this course is to develop quantitative abilities and analytical thinking skills of the business students. Firms consistently face decision making problems. Mathematical methods are used to evaluate different alternatives. In order that these methods can be utilized and facilitate decision-making essential mathematical knowledge and skills are required. With the purpose offinding solutions to the problems in the business in mind, the course focuses on functions, integrals and linear equations solved by algebra. After the overview of the functions consisting of decision variables were presented, examples applied in the business area would be conveyed to students. Briefly, the course aims to develop quantitative skills and abilities of the students and apply this knowledge to business decesion making and various problem areas.

Course Content

Building the fundamental mathematical background that would be used in business decision-making, evaluation of the alternatives and identification of the optimum option and developing analytical thinking skills of students.
