Learning outcomes
Know the conceptual foundations of graph theory for systems analysis; methods of solving and applying logic algebra; operations and methods of finite automata; probabilistic and statistical methods, to conduct quantitative and qualitative analysis in international relations. Be able to apply the methods of algebra of logic, finite automata for the analysis of conflict situations in international relations and foreign policy; use graph theory to analyze international relations; apply probabilistic and statistical methods in conditions of insufficient information. Make responsible informed decisions based on the results of quantitative analysis.
