Introduction to Microeconomics

This five-week, in-person summer course is open to pre-college students attending the commuting or residential High School Summer Scholars Program.

What is produced in an economy? How is it produced? Who gets the product? Microeconomics seeks to answer these fundamental questions about markets. In this course, you will learn to analyze models that explain real-world behavior of consumers and firms while exploring empirical results and policy implications. Determination of prices; distribution of national income; theory of production will be covered in this course.

Prerequisites: None.
