Description: LABOR ECONOMICS
*****
DISTRIBUTION COURSE GROUP 2
*****
Covers a number of topics relating to labor supply, labor demand, and equilibrium in the labor market. The course presents theoretical and empirical work in each of the subject areas covered. The presentation requires that students have a firm foundation in microeconomic theory, and it requires that students be willing to improve, over the course of the semester, their ability to apply the basic tools of microeconomic analysis. Though Econ 415 requires no prior courses in statistics or econometrics, some elementary knowledge of these subjects will be necessary for an understanding of the empirical work discussed in the course. Consequently, students in this course should be prepared to study some of the empirical techniques used by labor economists.
