Household Economics & Human Behaviour

BUEC 488, LEC A02

When: Spring 2024, Mondays & Wednesdays 1:00 PM - 2:50 PM

Instructors: Guozhong Zhu

Description: How to choose the right career? How to avoid overspending? When to buy your first home? What investment portfolio fits you? How to plan for retirement? When we make these important decisions, we are subject to psychological influences and cognitive constraints. Therefore, a framework of rational household/individual decision-making can make a difference in your life.

Our new course provides such a framework that synthesizes state-of-the-art economics with practical skills.
