Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
As a PhD course, this course goes beyond a practical knowledge of methods of decision analysis. Students should be able to understand the inherent logic of models of decision analysis and their relation to fundamental assumptions about rationality as well as the inherent limitations implied by these assumptions. This should enable students to select and apply the appropriate methods for their own research work.
Examination topics
The course uses a blend of e-learning based self instruction and classroom teaching. Teaching notes and training material are provided in advance on the e-learning platform, students are expected to study this material before class. Classroom lectures and discussions will be used to strengthen the students' understanding of the material.
