Vakinhoudelijk
In the second part of the course we will look at game theory, the study of multi-person decision problems, and behavioral economics which adds insights of the field of psychology to the traditional economic rational-choice and equilibrium models. The emphasis will be on behavioral economics, for which students are required to carry out independent research.
The class meets twice a week for 1h 45m. Active participation is required. The set-up of each class will differ depending on the topic and day.
