Economics is a social science that includes the study of how individual and aggregate choices influence the marketplace and the overall economy. This course will introduce students to the broad dimensions of the United States and global economies, and the core principles of microand macroeconomic theory, while emphasizing real-world personal, business and government applications of both. Microeconomics explores the way in which individual economic agents, such as producers and consumers of goods and services, make decisions. Macroeconomics encompasses the aggregate economy and is concerned with issues such as the national income, interest rates, inflation and unemployment.
