Course details
This course encompasses a broad ranging introduction to economic theory and analysis as well as a study of some applications of economics to economic systems and to enterprises. Students will be required to study macroeconomics (how an economy works as a whole) and microeconomics (how individual businesses and sectors operate). Students will also be required to gain some understanding of why institutions are very important in an economy, and how internal and international trade creates economic wealth. Key goals in the course will be to raise your awareness of the importance of economic systems, introduce you to the different fields of economic theory that are relevant to business, and develop some analytical skills.
