Course contents
The first part of the course includes the necessary mathematical tools for the MSc NOMA-FAME, specifically linear algebra and static optimisation. The second part of the course deals with in particular microeconomic theory and applications. This elaborates on the theory and examples taught in lower degree courses, but also extend into new cases. An in-depth look is taken at consumer and firm behaviour, the theory of markets, economics of strategy, industrial organisation and theory of regulation.
