ECO 3850 - Game Theory (3)


When Offered: On Demand
This course will develop the framework to conduct strategic economic analysis of individual and firm level decision-making.  Students will be exposed to different approaches to modeling simultaneous-move and sequential-move games with and without repetition and uncertainty. In addition, students will learn techniques used to solve games for unique, multiple, and mixed-strategy Nash equilibria, as well as refinements to the Nash equilibrium concept. These techniques will be applied to collective-action problems, voting behavior, bargaining and negotiation, mechanism design, and bidding in auctions.
Prerequisite: 54 earned hours, MAT 1035  or MAT 1110 .
