Modules

This module aims to offer insights obtainable from theoretical microeconomic models; to lay a foundation in micro theory that is used to study and understand other fields of economics and finance; to provide an understanding of the methodological issues involved in the application of such models; to interpret the results of such applications in decision-making contexts; to provide a bridge between microeconomic theory and real world decision-making and policy problems; to provide the underlying theory and analysis for other courses to build upon. Thus optional courses such as Applied Microeconometrics and Finance and Investment, represent opportunities to consolidate and extend on material covered in this course.
