Course Description The aim of this course is to introduce important risk concepts and then to teach quantitative risk analysis and control techniques by engineering, economic, environmental and security aspects and to emphasize their role in decision support systems.

Course Learning Outcomes and Competences

Upon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:
1) Understand important risk concepts to make appropriate analysis;
2) Make risk analysis and optimization with appropriate numerical methods;
3) Use risk as a decision support tool with different dimensions (security, environment, finance, etc.).
Program Learning Outcomes/Course Learning Outcomes 1 2 3
1) An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics
2) An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors
3) An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences
4) An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts
5) An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives
6) An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions
7) An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies

Attendance/participation: According to YÖK regulations, students are required to attend at least 70% of the lectures. Students are expected to prepare for the lecture via pre-lecture videos and reading materials and attend the lectures. Formal use of e-mails: The course instructor assumes that any information sent through email will be received in 24 hours, unless a system problem occurs. Project: A term project will be assigned to be done in teams of four. Missing the midterm exam: Students missing the midterm exam should get a valid official document to prove their excuse. Missing a final: Faculty regulations. Inappropriate conduct, academic dishonesty and plagiarism are subject to YÖK Disciplinary Regulation.
