marketing mix'. It goes on to offer detailed guidance for developing and
implementing a marketing plan. 'Finance' deals with financial records and
statements, cash flow management, management accounting and using financial
information, all in terms which are accessible to non-specialists. There are
clear explanations in each area supported by examples and case studies.

Following a general introduction, the qualitative and quantitative data, their systems of collection and analysis are given to the students. Regression and correlation analysis concepts. Case studies and solutions by using relevant software such as SPSS. Quality control concepts with respect to data analysis. Students will be able to manage qualitative data in an efficient and accessible manner, develop a qualitative data analysis plan, choose and apply different inductive and deductive approaches to coding appropriate to the data type and the context in which results will be used, employ and write analytical memos to aid in interpretation of qualitative data, understand the basic functions of computer-aided qualitative data analysis software, present qualitative findings in different settings using formats appropriate for different audiences.

This course covers data analysis
using statistical methods, e.g., descriptive and multivariate analyses.
Furthermore, the course covers the topics of correlation, sampling, estimation,
and hypotheses testing. The logic and key assumptions underpinning the multivariate
ordinary least squares regression model will be given together with more
advanced subjects such as the analysis of time series and panel data analysis.
The emphasis will be on achieving a smooth transition between theory, model
definition, and outcome presentation. It will illustrate several methods of
data analysis, presenting the findings of analyses (for example, visually,
using graphics, tables, and text), and understanding of their meaning. 
Participants will gain hands-on experience with the techniques discussed in
this course by applying them to various datasets using statistical software.

This course is the continuation of ENGL143. The aim of the course is to develop students’ listening, speaking, reading, writing and study skills. In this course, students will learn how to write comparison and contrast essay by drawing Venn diagram. Moreover, they will study comparison and contrast connectors. Furthermore, students will recognize the differences between facts and opinion sentences and write a four-paragraph opinion essay which includes counter-argument and refutation sentences. So, students will realize the differences between  comparison and contrast essay and opinion essay writing. Furthermore, students will present the required topics regarding presentation techniques. And, students will summarize texts and make inferences by using a variety of reading strategies.
