Overview of class

This course is concerned with the analysis of consumer and producer choice in market economies and with the nature of equilibria in competitive, monopolistic and imperfectly competitive markets. It also deals with the foundation of the market mechanism and analysis of welfare.

Registration Requirements

ECON 201-0, ECON 202-0, MATH 220-1. Instructors Notes: Calculus will be used extensively in the course.

Teaching Method

The material covered in lectures will generally correspond to the material assigned in the readings, although the lectures will often present the material from a different point of view, often with calculus. Lectures should be viewed as complements to, rather than as substitutes for the reading. There will also be discussion sections. The discussion sections are an integral part of the course, and your attendance is expected. They will be used to expand on ideas presented in the text and in lectures, to discuss homework problems and as a time for you to ask questions about anything that you would like clarified. Problem assignments and due dates will be announced in class.

Class Materials (Required)

The required text for the course is Microeconomics and Behavior by Robert Frank, 10th ed., McGraw Hill, ISBN13: 9781259394034.
