As members of our society, we make many decisions that affect the environment and our natural resources. As consumers, employees, managers, voting members, or firm owners, our choices affect others around us, the environment and firm decisions. In this seminar, we will introduce a number of problems related to consumer choices, markets, firm and government decisions and the impacts of those choices on the environment, our natural resources and society in general. These decisions extend from our local communities to the global society and our objective will be to introduce methods with which we can analyze the impacts of our decisions.
Open to first-year SBS students (include direct admits to all SBS majors and Exploratory Track SBS students) 5 seats reserved for RES-ECON majors.
