CEEC 0915 - Making Informed Financial Decisions in Today’s World Economy

Institution:

Brown University

Subject:

Description:

What does it mean to be an informed, globally-minded person? Why do so many people and professional organizations not meet their economic goals? What do you need to know to make good financial decisions? Students will explore critical issues through the lens of economics and decision analysis to begin to consider these questions and to make better life decisions. Case studies and contemporary examples from the real world give students the opportunity to learn about the theory and practical applications of economics in today’s world. From the local to the global, we will investigate problems and analyze how things might have gone better (or worse) if economic thought had been applied.
