Economics 103H - Introduction to Microeconomics

The honors section goes beyond the standard study of the macro-economy and addresses some important topical issues such as Financial Crises and Income inequality. The standard textbook is augmented with additional readings related to unemployment, inflation, national income accounting, the Federal Reserve and monetary policy. The development of critical thinking and inquiry is an important part of this course. The honors enrichment includes a 5-page paper. (Gen. Ed. SB)
