Course Objectives:	Through PPP projects, partnerships are established at the stages of the financing of infrastructure investments and practice between public and private sectors. This model means also a risk-sharing, division of tasks and budget. As a result, in this course, applications of the public-private partnership practices in developing and constantly in need of investment growing countries by both the central government and all local governments in optimal conditions will be determined. PPP in essence is not new but gains a new functioning and structure with changing economic and management processes winning sector cooperation.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) The main objective throughout the course is examining the role of the private sector in the provision of public services.

2) At the end of the course, the selection, shaping and evaluating of public-private sector partnership model’s contribution to service delivery will be examined.

3) It is aimed that advising students on three intertwined basic issues. When are PPP projects implemented? When should they be implemented? Planning: How does PPP work? How should it work? Evaluating: how does PPP perform? How should be the performance of PPP?

4) Negotiation, communication, performance metrics, and risk management issues will be the focuses as the criteria for a successful model.

5) The strategy and mission, structure, funding, authority, and resources will be focused on as success of A PPP project is largely dependent on.

Course Content

Students will have the opportunity to understand the main framework of PPP projects and to observe empirical studies.
In each case, students will be asked to evaluate achievements, shortcomings and missed opportunities in the process of successful and sustainable public-private partnership.
