Course Content Ders, bir dönemlik ders olup, Güz döneminde verilir. Ders, üniversite-sanayi iş
birliğini geliştirmek için iyi bir araçtır. Bu bağlamda, öğrenciler, bir sistemi analiz
ederek sistemdeki problem(ler)i belirleyecek, sistemin kavramsal ve matematiksel
modellerini geliştirecek, problem(ler)i çözmek için modeller uygulayacak ve bir
proje raporu hazırlayacaktırlar. Proje, bir organizasyonun gerçek bir problemini
veya bir araştırma problemini akademik ve endüstri danışmanlarının gözetiminde
çözmek için takım çalışması ile yürütülecektir. Öğrencilerden problem analizi ve
model geliştirme aşamalarını tamamlamaları, önerilen çözüm metodolojisini
problemi çözmek için uygulama, raporu tamamlama ve projenin sonuçlarını
paydaşlara sunmaları beklenmektedir
