About the course
Economics is the study of how people make decisions and use scarce resources, how people respond to incentives, and how productive activity is coordinated. Economics often involves topics like money and finance, but it?s not all about money. Economics is a broad discipline that helps us understand historical trends, interpret today?s headlines, and make predictions about the coming years. Economics equips students to analyze a range of economic, social, political, and legal phenomena and public policy. The study of market regulation, economic growth, international trade, income distribution, and employment and inflation are the stock in trade of economics. But economists also analyze a broader set of issues, including the nature of the family, the origins of civilizations, discrimination, crime, public health, and the structures of law and politics. Economists have all kinds of jobs, such as government advisors, consultants, and jobs in the private sector. Using theoretical models and empirical data, they evaluate programs, study human behavior, and explain social phenomena. Their contributions inform everything from public policy to household decisions. Economics intersects many disciplines. Its applications include health, law, gender, the environment, education, and immigration. Economics provides a versatile background for postgraduate training and a range of professional careers. Economics offers a framework for the analysis of rules of liability, contracts, and property rights and thus undergirds much of the modern study of law. Economics also contains the theoretical core for business, finance, accounting, and marketing and thus provides a solid foundation for postgraduate work in business. Economics teaches tools for strategic thinking and empirical analysis that can help you become a successful entrepreneur. Most public policy issues, including issues in public health, have a strong economic dimension, and many private-sector job opportunities are available for economics majors in banking, brokerage, law, and technology companies.
