Course Objectives: The objective of this course is to develop and extend the knowledge of mathematical techniques underlying the application of probability theory to well known engineering and operations research problems. This Ms level course is intended to cover stochastic models such as probability theory, random numbers, conditional probability, Markov processes, and Poisson processes.

Learning Outputs

The students who have succeeded in this course;
I. Identify the nature of probability models.
II. Develop a model for a probabilistic real-life problem.
III. Solve a constructed probabilistic model analytically.
IV. Analyze stochastic processes in real-life.

Course Content

This course is offered in the Industrial Engineering master curriculum as a must course where the basic and fundamental knowledge of stochastic processes are given. After gaining knowledge of these topics, the students will be able to explore research and to do master theses related with both the theory and applications of the probabilistic models covered in this course.
