ECO 350 - Game Theory

Description
Game theory is a mathematical framework useful for describing and analyzing interactions between multiple decision-makers.  In this course we will learn about a number of ways of mathematically representing these interactions as well as some basic tools of analysis. Topics include strategic and extensive form games, Nash equilibrium, repeated games, and Bayesian games. Game theory is a particularly powerful framework as it can be useful for modeling a great number of situations (economic, personal, political, biological, etc.).
