Topics include (but are not limited to) general equilibrium, choice under uncertainty, gametheory, mechanism design, and behavioral economics. An area of particular focus is how incomplete and asymmetric informationimpacts competitive and strategic behavior by individuals and firms in a variety of applied settings.The materials emphasize theoretical models prevalent in microeconomic research, and students are expected to develop afamiliarity with the use of mathematical modeling in economics.
