ECON 6110 — Advanced Microeconomic Theory
4 semester hoursGraduateLectureusually offered: falltypical days: T/FBostonTraditional
Discusses consumer choice, classical demand theory, production, choice under uncertainty, competitive markets, and market power, which provide the theoretical foundation of more advanced topics that can be used as the basis to design empirical applications. Requires a strong background in linear algebra, multivariate calculus, and optimization theory for success in the course. A good undergraduate intermediate-level microeconomic theory course is also helpful. This is the first advanced graduate-level course on microeconomic theory for graduate students.
