Course Description

This is an introductory course that covers the major results that have been obtained by using experiments in economics. Experiments are used in economics, like they are in the natural sciences and in psychology, to learn about the world around us. In the case of experimental economics, the goal is to better understand how people make decisions in economic settings and how these translate into overall market and group outcomes. The objectives of this course are to acquaint you with the main findings from economic experiments, give you experience participating in experiments, and show you how the insights can be used in business settings.
