DESCRIPTION
Economics is the study of the allocation of scarce resources. This course provides students with a rigorous grounding in the core concepts and methods of microeconomics, which examines the decision-making of people in their everyday lives. It looks at when voluntary interactions between individuals promote the common good, when they do not, and what policy can do about it. Standard microeconomic tools such as constrained choice are taught by showing how they give insight into real-world problems.
