ECON224 - Applied Game Theory/Lecture, Discussion

Game theory is the formal study of situations in which individuals make decisions that will influence one another's welfare. It provides a set of analytical tools that are useful for scholars in all branches of social sciences as well as for practical decision-makers. This course offers an introduction to game theory with an emphasis on its applications. It covers applications in economics, business, political science, sociology, international relations, psychology, biology, and recreation. No prior knowledge of game theory is presumed and the required mathematical background is minimal (high school algebra and one course in calculus will be sufficient). Prerequisite: Math120 or Math124 or instructor's permission. Mr. Zhang/Offered periodically
