Principles of Economics

The course deals with basic economic principles that help us understand the process of decision-making by individuals and societies.

We analyze the fundamental economic activities of production, distribution, exchange, and consumption at both the micro and macro level.

Besides developing an understanding of the functioning of a free market system, we also critically examine the controversies that surround the use of public policies for the greater common good.

Students may not take both ECON E-10a and ECON E-1000 for degree or certificate credit.
