Trefnydd: Ms Wendy Ashurst

This module provides an introduction to Economics by following the syllabus of the CORE project (Curriculum in Open-access Resources in Economics). The CORE curriculum will equip students to understand how the economy has evolved and how it works by bringing advances in economics research over the past three decades, lessons from economic history and the comparative experience of different countries into the curriculum.

The module will provide an overview of the history of global economic development and introduce some of the tools and models that economists have used to explain this experience. The module will consider models of individual choice and game theory; models of firm behaviour and market interaction; as well as models of the macroeconomy. These models will be used to help understand many of the features of both the past and the contemporary world, including population and economic growth; inequality; business cycles and climate change. The module will clarify measures of economic variables and deliberate concepts of economic efficiency.
