Microeconomics Principles

Welcome to this Specialization focused on the principles of Microeconomics. This program is not merely about the study of money, but explores the functional roles of individual decision-makers, both consumers and producers, within the larger economic system. Across four comprehensive courses, we will provide an introduction to the nature and functions of product markets, the theory of the firm under various conditions of competition and monopoly, and the roles governments play in promoting the economy's efficiency. We will delve into fascinating subjects such as the environment, love and marriage, crime, labor markets, education, politics, sports, and business. This program is perfect for students, professionals interested in economics, or anyone aiming to make more informed financial decisions. The only prerequisites for this course are an open mind and a willingness to explore the fascinating world of economics from unique angles.

Great course. Good instructor. Works through content by providing real life examples first and then going back into the supporting theory, which helps illustrate the latter.
