The Subject Microeconomic Analysis is the study of how societies control and organize the production and distribution of goods and services. In this course, we will attempt to explain how consumers, firms, and workers interact, why they behave in particular ways, and what the outcome of that behavior might be.
Economists try to understand how and why the economy works.
There is much that we already know, but there is also a great deal that we still don't understand. This makes economics an exciting subject, both to teach and to study. We hope we can share that excitement with you. The TAs are advanced graduate students from the Economics Ph.D. program. Students are required to register both for the lecture and for the discussion section by using official registration procedures, as in most large courses.
