ECO 3250 - Intermediate Microeconomics

3 cr

This course builds on the fundamental principles of microeconomics with a deeper level of analysis and exploration, to provide students with a more internalized sense of both the potential and limits of microeconomic theory in its applications to real-world issues. Students will study consumer theory, theory of the firm, market structure, and factor markets, along with explorations into behavioral economics (including game theory), non-rational choice, and specific applications such as income distribution, externalities, general equilibrium, and government policies. Students will have the opportunity to apply concepts and ideas through written work, presentations, and projects such as experiments or surveys.
Minimum of sophomore standing.
