Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:

Data mining, which has an important place in determining the target audience-communication language and strategy in the field of communication and marketing, also tells what the content density is saying positively and negatively and what it usually talks about. In addition, it is also effective in producing insight, product development and risk-crisis management.
The aim of the course is to enable students, who aim to take part in the new media sector, to manage social media effectively and to communicate correctly with consumers on social media by analyzing content.

Course Content:

Data analysis, data categorization and data interpretation, social media monitoring, social listening, data mining, insight production, product development, risk-crisis management, reporting.
