MGTECON 200 is a base-level course in microeconomics. It covers microeconomic concepts relevant to management, including the economics of relationships, pricing decisions, perfect competition and the "invisible hand," risk aversion and risk sharing, and moral hazard and adverse selection. This year we are piloting a "flipped classroom" where students will be expected to work through the online modules before each class and the time in class will be devoted to solving problems and discussing cases.

MGTECON 203 is the more quantitative version of
MGTECON 200. It uses math tools such as derivatives and algebra to explain economics concepts. No previous knowledge of economics is assumed. The class covers key ideas in economics relating to topics such as game theory, dynamic cooperation, pricing, market power, competitive equilibrium, moral hazard, adverse selection, externalities, risk aversion, and auction theory. The goal of the class is to develop a small number of intellectual tools that enable one to analyze a wide variety of economic problems and business strategies.
