This course focuses on the theoretical background of knowledge and design issues throughout history. The main lines of development and influential factors, designers, art and design schools, and exhibitions which are the turning points in the history of design will be discussed. (INAR 3012/INT 3022)
EDI380.7 Theory of Design
EDI380.1 Interior Design Approaches
This course aims to introduce a disciplinary approach to the recent concepts in architecture and interior architecture professions. These are not only the major and most popular concepts and subjects for the world of design but for all disciplines in the 21st century. Universal Design (Design for All), Sustainability and Adaptive Re-Use are the headings to be discussed, to give students an understanding and perception of interiors of present and future through the definitions and analysis of existing examples. Counts for EDI 352 for SU Design majors. (INAR 3015)
MEE480.2 Special Topics in Applied Mechatronics
This course aims to provide students with focused treatment of various advanced topics in mechatronics design and application. course content will be based on mechatronic applications as determined by the course instructor. (MCH 4952)
ECS380.1 Engineering Materials
In this course students learn the structures of basic material types the interrelations between structure and various material properties for each type of material; the applications and limitations of engineering materials, based on their properties, in various fields; and the electrical, magnetic, and thermal properties of materials and the uses of materials based on these properties. (MCH 2002)
ECS280.2 Engineering Dynamics
This course covers the fundamental theory of the motion of bodies broken into three main modules: 1) the analysis of motion of particles (or point masses), 2) the analysis of the planar motion of bodies, 3) the analysis of general 3D motion of bodies. Each module will systematically build on the theory presented on the previous module. Each module examines the analysis of motion without considering the forces that induce the motion (kinematics) and the cause-effect analysis between forces and motion. The effect of forces on motion will be, in turn, considered from three separate but related perspectives: force, energy, and momentum. (MCH 2012)
ECS280.1 Statics and Stength of Materials
This course equips students with the knowledge of statics and strength of materials. Design methodologies and procedures for the mechanical components will be introduced within the content of the lecture. (MCH 2011)
ECS180.1 Introduction to Mechatronics
This is an introductory course in which Mechatronics Engineering concepts are explained with examples selected from daily life. At the end of the course, Students will have a basic understanding about the Mechatronics Engineering problem solving discipline using mathematics and scientific principles. The course has a laboratory part. The objectives of the laboratory experiments are to: teach basic electronic circuit theory, demonstrate basic electronic circuit components, and introduce modeling software. (MCH 1006)
ECN480.8 Applied Economics: Family and Education
This course starts by providing an intermediate level theoretical introduction to economics of the family, economics of education, and other new areas in microeconomic theory. The main focus of the course will be on applied research conducted in these areas. The aim of the course is to understand how microeconomic theory is tested using micro-level data such as individual data and/or household data. Pre-req: a solid knowledge of statistics and a good understanding of econometrics in order to follow the new advances in applied economics. (ECO 4754)
ECN480.7 Agricultural Policy and Rural Development
Common Agricultural Policy is the most integrated of all EU policies. This course will begin with analyzing the historical background of CAP from 1960 onwards and touch upon the reform process after 1990. EU decision- making institutions involved in shaping the CAP will be scrutinized. The course will examine the two pillars of CAP: Single Payment Scheme known as Pillar I and Rural Development Regulation and evaluate CAP benefits and costs for member states. As CAP takes a large share of the EU budget, it is important to investigate the financial aspects of the CAP. Moreover, regarding the international trade, interaction of the WTO and CAP reform and the impacts of the CAP on the trade with developing countries will be analyzed. This course will also elaborate the integration of environmental objectives and measures into the CAP and new reforms in relation to climate change mitigation and adaptation. An emphasis will be put on EU enlargement and its implications for agricultural policy and rural development and Turkey?s position vis-a-vis the accession negotiations. Finally, challenges in the future of agricultural policy and rural development will be discussed. (EUR 4415)
ECN480.6 EU Competition Policy
EU competition policy is one of the most important Community policies not only because it has an enormous proportion of cases before the Court of Justice, but also because it involves economic, financial and intellectual interests. Topics examined: perfect competition and workable competition; the regulation of competition; distributorship, licensing and franchising agreements; the different types of Block Exemptions; the concept of dominance in the market.
