Course description
This course aims to set students on the path to becoming effective decision makers. It equips students with the core economic principles that are necessary to understand how decision makers make choices and how choices can be made that make the best possible use of limited available resources. Whether you are operating in the role of a consumer apportioning your income, a company manager striving to maximise profits, or a government policy-maker seeking to tackle environmental degradation, these principles are fundamental to effective decision making.
