Dr. Elif BAŞKAYA | Co-Lecturer | PROF. DR. Tülay KESEMEN, | Language of instruction | Turkish | Professional practise ( internship ) | None | | The aim of the course: | The objective of this course is to initiate students to Probability Theory in which the main tools are those of Measure Theory. The proposed outline constitutes the prerequisites for Stochastic Calculus and other studies in the domain of stochastic processes. |
