ECO 202 Intermediate Microeconomics

The microeconomics course studies some of the fundamental concepts and methods in economics. It equips students with the basic tools and methods of analysis used in economic reasoning. In the first term, the basic theories of consumer and producer behavior are studied in the context of competitive markets. Then, by combining these two theories, various properties of such markets are investigated together with their welfare properties. In the second term, the focus is on the study of how various imperfections, or frictions, affect the outcomes of decentralized markets.
