| Description |
The course continues where Microeconomics I ends in following the standard canon of microeconomic theory. This course deals with game theory, partial equilibrium, externalities and asymmetric information. These topics are treated rigorously, that means that a substantial amount of time will be spent on mathematical proofs.
