The economics course introduced the main issues of individual economic behavior with a reference to consumers and firms, and the analysis of competitive markets. After learning the above principles, we had to work in small groups and were assigned a case study – each group was assigned a company’s case. We had to identify the principles that were being used, the principles that were being violated and their effect on the economic front of the company.
The finance course gave me broad understanding of the key issues in finance and their relationship with the globalized world economy. The course taught me about the current financial events by starting each class with an extensive discussion of what has recently appeared in the financial press, using the analytic frameworks developed in class, which helped me understand these developments.
