Basic information

Language of instruction: En
Type of course: Departmental Elective
Course Level: Bachelor
Mode of Delivery: Face to face
Course Coordinator : Prof. Dr. HASAN KEMAL SUHER
Course Objectives: Approximation research, tries to explain a phenomenon, consept or fact by very little number of (very frequently by only one) but effective and practical independent variable. In other words, they try to reach to a target inquiry (phenomenon, consept or fact) in a science universe from another phenomenon, consept or fact (reference point) of the same science universe with a minimum approximation error by creating a worm hole. And sometimes it aims to prove that no worm hole can be created from a certain point of the science universe to another certain point of the same science universe. Hence, the goal of this course is to discover possible unique worm holes in the consumer behavior universe by unique experimental designs.
