AS.180.602 (01)	Microeconomic Theory II	TTh 1:30PM - 3:00PM	Chen, Ying; Petri Betto, Maria Fernanda	Wyman Park W603	Spring 2026	Description: The course covers parts of game theory and the economics of information. Game theory topics include solution concepts such as dominance, Nash equilibrium, subgame perfect equilibrium and Perfect Bayesian equilibrium. We will discuss both static and dynamic games and games of complete and incomplete information. The course also introduces the economic issues associated with asymmetric information and analyzes the institutions and mechanisms designed to mitigate the resulting inefficiencies. Topics include adverse selection, moral hazard, incentive contracts, and mechanism design. Credits: 3.00 Status: Closed Seats Available: 4/20 Tags: n/a

Begins with a thorough discussion of the consumption/saving problem of households, including the role of uncertainty, then moves to investment behavior of firms, including the relationship between financial markets and firm behavior. General equilibrium models of firms and households combine to generate benchmark models of economic growth, which leads us to a benchmark specification for dynamic aggregate macroeconomic models.

AS.180.632 (01)	Topics in Applied Microeconometrics	T 10:30AM - 11:30AM	Papageorge, Nicholas W	Wyman Park W604	Fall 2026	Description: This course teaches methods for using micro-data to recover structural parameters of microeconomic models. We cover static models, but focus largely on single-agent dynamic programming, including “full solution” methods along with innovations that permit circumvention of daunting computational tasks. Additional topics will be partially based on students’ interests, but will likely include: general equilibrium models, static and dynamic games, matching models, unobserved heterogeneity, structural methods with experimental data and biased expectations. The goal is to teach students to use structural methods in their own research, and so we will delve into the nuts and bolts of structural work, examining how researchers actually get from raw data to results. This includes: how the sub-sample for analysis is chosen, how the model is specified, how the programming problem is solved, which moments are generated, how these are matched to the analogous moments in the data and, importantly, how identification is established.
