Additional Course Info | Class Number: 2770 Industrial Organization is the study of how markets work, with an emphasis on firm behavior in imperfectly-competitive markets. The focus will be on how firms acquire market power and how they use it, how businesses interact with one another and their customers, implications for the firms’ profits and the well-being of their customers, and the role of government competition policy (e.g., regulation, antitrust laws, etc.) to improve the functioning of these markets. This course uses microeconomic tools and game theory to study the strategic competition between firms and examine how this is related to market power and market structure.
