Economic Theory
Nowadays, game theory describing the social relationships among people, as well as brain science and psychological methods for clarifying people’s decision-making, provide essential support not just for the science of economics but also for social science in general. In Economic Theory, with a focus on these two frameworks that form the backbone of decision-making science, you will learn methods for theoretically analyzing various problems related to business, including consumer behavior, management organization, competitive strategies for the market, and the like.
