Intermediate Microeconomics is the more advanced treatment of concepts introduced in Principles of Economics. It is a theoretical course meant to give economics and business students insights into how to make good economic decisions. As such, the course emphasizes how rational individuals make optimal decisions when facing constraints.
This course is about thinking strategically. That is, how to make good decisions in situations where other people’s choices affect us? Although the use of microeconomics and mathematics is often needed, the primary goal is to think critically about problems and to explore a different approach to decision-making.
