Course goals

The course aims to strengthen skills in game theory by focusing on its applicability to the problems of politics and business. While at the first glance games often seem too abstract or distinct from the actual political and economic processes, they can be grounded in the empirics. Thus, during the course we will focus on some more advanced game theory models and especially  look at how they can help us improve our understanding of politics, economics and business through applications of game theory to specific analysis questions. This will equip students with skills needed to develop and apply game theory models in research and practice.
