We seek a mix of students contemplating different majors interested in an interdisciplinary approach to considering social behavior. (May be used towards the Econ major only with permission of the instructor.)

TOPIC: This course uses economic concepts, principles & theories to examine selected topics relevant to the health sector of the United States, with a particular emphasis on the public health sector. Issues pertinent to the government in its provision, financing and regulation of health care will be addressed. Economic evaluation techniques often used in public decision-making will be reviewed.

NEW COURSE.This course explores systematic departures of behavior from the predictions of neoclassical economic theory, and when possible, proposes alternative theories to explain this behavior. Students will read contemporary scholarly articles and apply the models that they present.

NEW COURSE.This course will introduce numerical methods commonly used in the fields of macroeconomics and finance. It will introduce computational and programming techniques that can be used to solve finite-dimensional optimization problems. Such problems commonly arise in economics-how much to spend as opposed to save; and in finance-how to distribute the saved amount across different assets.
