Notes

【Course Objectives】

This course covers the intermediate-level microeconomics concepts and the empirical applications. These contents are the foundations for policy analysis and essential to other applied elective courses. In addition, students will learn the knowledge and tools required for their thesis research.

【Course Contents】

We study theoretical models to analyze consumers' and firms' behavior. Specifically, to explore the policy effects on the aggregate economy, we study the concept of general equilibrium. Moreover, to understand the interactions between firms' strategies or between different interest groups, we study the concept of game theory and Nash equilibrium. In addition, we will also cover several topics on experimental economics.
For the first two hours of the class, we will devote our attention to microeconomic theory. This component is vital for both your thesis and subsequent coursework. In the remaining hour, we will discuss empirical or behavioral economics. These topics come from Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces" by Dan Ariely.
