Economics

ECON 100A (2025-08-20 - 2099-12-19)

This course introduces students to the main tools and concepts of microeconomics. These tools and concepts will serve as a foundation for many upper level economics courses. Topics covered include consumer theory, producer theory, equilibrium in a competitive market, monopoly, general equilibrium, and asymmetric information. This course makes use of calculus. Topics covered are similar to those in 101A.

ECON 141 (2021-08-18 - 2021-08-18)

This course provides an introduction to statistical and estimation analysis of economic data, also known as “Econometrics”. It covers topics such as the linear regression model and its estimator, Ordinary Least Squares, as well as extensions such as Instrumental Variables models, panel data models, and time series models. While topics covered in this course are similar to those in 140, the treatment in this course is more theoretical and more mathematical.

ECON 140 (2021-08-18 - 2021-08-18)

This course provides an introduction to statistical and estimation analysis of economic data, also known as “Econometrics”. It covers topics such as the linear regression model and its estimator, Ordinary Least Squares, as well as extensions such as Instrumental Variables models, panel data models, and time series models. Topics covered in this course are similar to those in 141.

ECON 2 (2000-01-11 - 2000-01-11)

The course provides a survey of economics principles and methods. It covers both microeconomics, the study of consumer choice, firm behavior, and market interaction, and macroeconomics, the study of economic growth, unemployment, and inflation. Special emphasis is placed on the application of economic tools to contemporary economic problems and policies. Economics 2 differs from Economics 1 in that it has an additional hour of lecture per week and can thus cover topics in greater depth. It is particularly appropriate for intended economics majors.

ECON 2 (2024-08-21 - 2099-12-19)

Econ 2 provides an overview of the field of economics. It covers both microeconomics, the study of consumer choice, firm behavior, and market interaction, and macroeconomics, the study of economic growth, unemployment, and inflation. Econ 2 has longer lectures than Econ 1. Econ 2 covers topics in greater depth with more connection with current economic research. The required material includes both the standard textbook material as well as more technical academic papers from the current economic literature. It is particularly suited for intended economics majors.
