Course Syllabus

Abstract

Microeconomics II is the second part of the two-semester graduate-level course, which provides a rigorous treatment of microeconomic theory and its applications. We begin with aspects of production and cost that are common to all firms. Then we consider the behavior of perfectly competitive firms – a very special but very important class. We continue with studying of interaction of economic agents within partial and general equilibrium framework and evaluate this interaction from a social perspective. Finally, we study elements of the social choice theory and information economics.
