Course Objectives and Learning Outcome
The course aims to provide students with opportunities to learn and discuss basic ideas of game theory.
The students are expected to perform a presentation and lead an academic discussion. They will be able to explain and analyze economic phenomena in their own words (of game theory). Subtitle and Keywords of the Class
Subtitle: Research Seminar on Game Theory
Keyword: Game Theory Course Overview and Schedule
Game theory studies interaction among multiple decision makers. It is applied to various fields in social sciences such as economics, business, politics, and so on. For example, auction design is one of the most successful applications of game theory. Online search engines such as Google gain their profits primarily from advertising auctions.
The seminar aims to provide students with a deep understanding of the discipline by reading a textbook together and by elaborating game-theoretical arguments in presentations. In the first week, we will discuss the seminar plan and schedule presentations. The rest of the semester will be devoted to reading the textbook(s). Students are required to take turns studying the textbook and presenting the content. In-person/Remote Classification
