Managerial Economics

The course relies mainly on a broad application of tools and methods of microeconomic analysis. It also reveals many features of interdisciplinary approach; in particular: major macroeconomic models and draws from decision sciences and system theory. A special emphasis has been placed upon making students better understand multiple determinants of the decision process and improving the skills of making optimal decisions in different market structures and under uncertainty.

The course has been designed with an overriding goal to equip students with a set of tools and basic economics principals, which enable an in-depth understanding of the determinants of the decision process and provide a basis for making optimal managerial decisions in different economic and institutional environments. The main emphasis has been placed upon practical implications of these principals, i.e. ways they can be incorporated into and improve the decision-making process of managers of today and tomorrow.
