Prerequisites
This course is an intermediate course in microeconomics. A fully understanding of the fundamentals learned in introduction to microeconomics is required. This course is analytic in nature. Calculus is required for you to follow the lectures and do the homework.
Course Objectives
This course is designed to provide you a more rigorous understanding of tools to examine and analyze the behavior of consumers and firms and their interactions in the marketplace. The course will start with consumer theory, followed by producer theory. Having gained an understanding of both the demand side and the supply side of economies, we proceed to study how the demand and supply come together and lead to equilibrium in a market. We will learn the interactions of individual economic agent in different types of markets, in some cases incurring inefficient allocation of goods and services.
Preparing for Class
It’s better for you to read the relevant chapter(s) in ahead of the time. During class, I will focus on lecturing the key concepts and problem solving. If you read through the chapters ahead of time, this should be great helpful for you understanding the content of lectures.
Grading
There will have two midterm exams, one final exam, a number of homework assignments and randomly in-class quizzes. Grades will be determined as follows:
Course participation
5%
Quizzes
10%
Homework
15%
Midterm Exams
30%
Final Exam
40%
The course participation includes participating in-class experiments, discussions, and group projects.
At random points during the semester I will give quizzes (10 minutes each) in the beginning of the class. Therefore, it is for your own best interest to attend classes on time.
The homework assignments include all the review questions corresponding to the chapters that we cover in the lectures. The answers that just simply copy those at the back of the book will be scored zero. They are due at the beginning of class on the listed dates.
Policies
I don’t accept any excuse for the missing of exams and quizzes unless you can provide proof of emergency such as serious illness. If you miss the exam or quiz for any reason that does not qualify as a proven emergency, you will get zero. All questions regarding grades of exams must be asked during office hours within ONE WEEK of the time that your exam grade is announced. You can work with your classmates on the homework assignments, but you are not allowed to copy someone else’s work. TA has the right to do not grade the late homework assignment turned in.
Academic Dishonesty
Academic dishonesty by the student code of conduct includes cheating on the assignments or exams; plagiarizing; altering; forging, or misusing a University academic record; taking, acquiring, or using test materials without faculty permission; and acting alone or in cooperation with another to enhance a grade, etc. A minimum penalty for academic dishonesty is a grade of zero. Other penalties may include a F in course and a complaint to university authorities so that they act consequently with the corresponding university policy.
