Microeconomics course aims to create an economic way of thinking that will enable individuals to understand their economic behavior and market structure. Microeconomics examines how preferences (at the consumer and producer scale) are formed, how scarce resources are allocated, and how markets work. In particular, product and factor markets, price as an indicator, how decisions are formed at the consumer, firm, worker and state level are explored. This course will provide students with the knowledge to use economic analysis (especially the supply and demand structure) and to construct the logic of economic justification and to continue their education in economics for the future.
