This course is designed as the graduate level course in international trade and foreign direct investment. It will provide rigorous trainings in both theory and empirical analysis. In addition to equip students with the general knowledge of this subject, it will also discuss the contemporary literature and investigate cutting-edge issues in the research of international trade and FDI. The course will cover neoclassical theory of international trade, empirical studies on trade patterns, imperfect competition and new-trade theory, trade policies and the political economy of trade policies, multinational corporations and FDI, outsourcing, and related aspects of international business strategies.
A working knowledge of multivariable calculus and linear algebra is required.
