Economics

Description

By completing this course, the students have achieved the following learning outcomes: Students can explain in simple language what market forces can and cannot do, and how best to correct market failures. Students are able to follow economic news through mastery of micro and macroeconomic concepts such as supply and demand, inequality, growth and inflation. Students can assess the impact of government policy measures on individual economic agents and macroeconomic policies on the economy as a whole, using a clear conceptual framework. These objectives are communicated to the students at the start of the lectures. Just like during the past academic years, lesson recordings will be provided. Nevertheless, it is strongly recommended to come to the lectures. The lesson recordings are mainly intended for working students or students who are unable to attend due to illness. They can also be reviewed to refresh the material while studying.
