Course Syllabus
Abstract
The course examines the organization of markets from a microeconomic perspective, the principles of microeconomic policy, and the role of government in allocating scarce resources. The topics include: perfect competition, pricing in the presence of market power, monopolistic competition, oligopoly, game theory and factor markets, general equilibrium and efficiency, markets with asymmetric information, externalities, and public goods. The course continues Microeconomics-1; however, it can also be treated as an independent discipline for exchange students. Module I (resp. II) of this course corresponds to Module III (resp. IV) of a generic undergraduate course in microeconomics.
Prerequisites:
Multivariable calculus;
Microeconomics-1, including: consumer behaviour, intertemporal choice, uncertainty, production, perfectly competitive markets.

Assessment Elements
- Home Assignments (Module 1)There are 3 home assignments in Module 1. All submissions must be done electronically via Smart LMS. Please, upload ONE file (max 20MB) per student! Each student can submit a home assignment only once. Late submissions are not accepted and graded with zero points. In a home assignment, you will be asked to solve 3-6 problems. Each problem includes several blocks, and ONLY ONE of these blocks will be graded. Thus, the grade for a specific problem is equal to the grade you get for a block chosen. For example, you can score 25 points solving Problem 1 that consists of three blocks. If an instructor chooses the second block for grading and you score 24 points for it, then your score for Problem 1 is also 24.
- Mid-Term Tests (Module 1)There will be 2 online mid-term tests in Module 1.
- Weekly Tests (Module 1)
- Home Assignments (Module 2)There are 3 home assignments in Module 2. All submissions must be done electronically via Smart LMS. Please, upload ONE file (max 20MB) per student!
